Rachel Zegler and Kit Connor are about to shake up Broadway with their fresh take on Romeo + Juliet. These young stars are trading movie sets for the Circle in the Square Theatre, kicking off a 16-week run on September 26th.
Broadway vet Diane Paulus is at the helm, and if the lively meet-and-greet on August 12th is any indication, we’re in for one heck of a show. Zegler, 23, and Connor, 20, are already teasing fans on social media with pics from the rehearsals. Talk about building the hype!
This marks both actors’ Broadway debut, and they’re diving in headfirst. With Zegler’s pipes and Connor’s charm, these star-crossed lovers might just breathe new life into the Bard’s classic.
