S9 Ep41: Gerardine Sacdalan, Juliet in And Juliet

Gerardine Sacdalan is starring as Juliet in And Juliet. Following its triumphant West End run and ongoing Broadway engagement, And Juliet is touring the UK and Ireland for the first time.

And Juliet flips the script on the greatest love story and asks, what would happen next if Juliet didn’t end it all over Romeo? Juliet’s new story bursts to life through a playlist of iconic pop anthems by Max Martin. The show features hits such as  “…Baby One More Time,”  “Roar,” “Since U Been Gone,” “It’s My Life,” “I Want It That Way,” and “Can’t Stop the Feeling!”.

After training at Urdang, Gerardine made her professional debut as Sandra Beaumont in Made In Dagenham In Concert at the London Palladium.

In this episodes Gerardine discusses auditioning for And Juliet, conquering such a demanding role and why - as an Asian woman in musical theatre - playing Juliet is such a big deal. Gerardine also reflects on her path into theatre and lots more along the way.

And Juliet tours the UK & Ireland until June 2025. Visit www.andjulietthemusical.co.uk for info and tickets.
