The North American tour of & Juliet, launching this fall, will feature Teal Wicks (The Cher Show, Finding Neverland) in the role of Anne Hathaway, originated by Betsy Wolfe on Broadway. The tour, which now has its complete cast, will begin performances September 22 at Baltimore’s Hippodrome Theatre at the France Merrick Performing Arts Center and go on to visit more than 30 cities in its first year.
