WHEREFORE ART THOU JULIET? to Premiere in New York City

The first self-guided immersive "broadway" show Wherefore Art Thou Juliet? premiers on September 27th, 2021, in New York City's theater district. Wherefore Art Thou Juliet? can be discovered only on the ChalkNotes app - available on both Google (coming soon) and Apple App stores - and experienced in real life across Manhattan.

The show will make its debut as the first self-guided augmented audio experience in the form of a trail starting and ending in Shubert Alley. There will be 11 possible locations to discover but separated into two different character tracks, each containing one scene of the play, enabling each audience member to experience the event at their own convenience, and gain different perspectives from different characters. Tickets are $24, but discounted to $16 for a limited time. You can purchase them at https://julietshow.com or on the ChalkNotes app when the show goes live.
