"It's the most fun you'll have in a Broadway theater right now," wrote Variety in reviewing "& Juliet" when this improbably-conceived jukebox musical opened on Broadway two years ago. Why improbable? Because this British import takes songs by pop wunderkind Max Martin (and friends) and drops them into a take on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" that imagines if Juliet had lived.

It was in 2012 that Megan Hilty had her breakout role. It came in the NBC television series "Smash," an ambitious attempt to tell the backstage story of a Broadway musical being produced with original songs by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, the creative team behind "Hairspray". On the show she played opposite Katharine McPhee as two actresses vying for the role of Marilyn Monroe in a musical bio called "Bombshell." Though the show only lasted two seasons, its fans were legion, so much so that it there was a 2015 concert performance on Broadway of "Bombshell" that led to discussion of it being produced as a stand-along musical. That project fell through, but more recently a cadre of producers, including Steven Spielberg, Shaiman and Hilty, are developing a musical based on "Smash" which had a reading in 2012 that featured Hilty.
