Toronto, ON (Wednesday May 13, 2026) - Due to popular demand, David and Hannah Mirvish announced a final extension for the Canadian production of the international smash-hit musical comedy & Juliet, adding eight weeks of performances through August 30, 2026, at the Royal Alexandra Theatre.
Following the enthusiastic response during the Canadian production’s sold-out first-ever sing-along performance earlier this month, two additional sing-along performances – on June 18 at 7:30pm and July 19 at 2:00pm – are included in the show’s final extension.
In addition, a Chilled Performance has been scheduled for July 2 at 1:30PM.

Patrons are welcome to make noise,and leave or re-enter the auditorium as needed throughout the performance. The production will be performed without modifications to technical aspects of the show.
Tickets for the new block are now on sale and available at mirvish.com or by calling 1.800.461.3333.
“& Juliet has proven to be one of the city’s all-time favourite shows,” said Hannah Mirvish. “In 2022, when it had its North American premiere here prior to opening on Broadway, audiences embraced it in such a joyful way, we knew we had to bring it back.
“Mounting this production allowed us to give audiences another chance to enjoy this truly special show and to showcase a new generation of incredible Canadian talent.
“We’ve had a wonderful run and look forward to our production’s final four months. With the FIFA World Cup games in Toronto at the same time, it will be a summer to remember.”
The Canadian production of & Juliet opened to rave reviews on December 14, 2025.

About & Juliet
With a book by Toronto’s own David West Read, the Emmy Award-winning writer from Schitt’s Creek, and music from legendary five-time Grammy Award-winning songwriter/producer Max Martin, & Juliet uses some of the most beloved pop songs of the last three decades to tell a multi-generational story of self-discovery, empowerment and love.
& Juliet flips the script on the greatest love story ever told, imagining what would happen next if Juliet hadn’t ended it all over Romeo, and got a second chance at life and love – on her terms. Juliet’s new story bursts to life through a playlist of pop anthems as iconic as her name, including “Since U Been Gone,” “Roar,” “I Want It That Way,” “Confident,” and more.
The production’s full creative team includes: Luke Sheppard (Direction), Jennifer Weber (Choreography), Bill Sherman (Musical Supervision, Orchestrations and Arrangements), Soutra Gilmour (Scenic Design), Paloma Young (Costume Design), Howard Hudson (Lighting Design), Gareth Owen (Sound Design), Andrzej Goulding (Video & Projection Design), J. Jared Janas (Hair, Wig & Makeup Design), and Dominic Fallacaro (Co-Orchestrations and Arrangements) and casting by Stephanie Gorin, CSA, CDC.
& Juliet premiered at the Manchester Opera House in September 2019, before transferring to the West End in November 2019, and won 3 Olivier Awards. Following a pre-Broadway summer run in 2022 in Toronto, & Juliet opened at New York’s Stephen Sondheim Theatre in November 2022, where it is in its fourth smash year on Broadway. The show’s first North American tour kicked offed in 2024 and continues to tour the continent.
& Juliet has played in nine countries and on four continents since its West End premiere in 2019. The Original Broadway Cast Recording of & Juliet was released in October 2022 on Atlantic Records and is available wherever streaming music is played.
