First look at Heartstopper star Kit Connor’s Broadway debut

As a die-hard fan of both theater and Heartstopper, I must say that seeing Kit Connor take on the iconic role of Romeo is nothing short of exhilarating! Having grown up watching his charming portrayal of Nick Nelson, it’s fascinating to witness him step into the world of Shakespearean tragedy.


Photos from Kit Connor’s debut on Broadway in “Romeo and Juliet,” based on the popular series “Heartstopper,” have surfaced.

In this fresh adaptation of one of William Shakespeare’s timeless plays, the actor makes his New York stage premiere by portraying the Montague heir, acting alongside Rachel Zegler as Juliet.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t contain my excitement upon seeing the recently revealed images of the duo portraying the ill-fated lovers in this upcoming production. Directed by Sam Gold, these captivating snapshots promise a lavish reinterpretation of the heartbreaking tale.

This week marks the commencement of “Romeo and Juliet” at the Circle in the Square Theatre, where it also features Gabby Beans, Daniel Bravo Hernández, Jasai Chase-Owens, Tommy Dorfman, Nihar Duvvuri, Sola Fadiran, Taheen Modak, and Gían Pérez.

In the latest release, you’ll find tracks produced by Jack Antonoff and choreography inspired by ‘Moulin Rouge! The Musical’, created by Sonya Tayeh.

As a gaming enthusiast diving into the world of theater, I’ve got to share some exciting news! Unlike the Broadway version being the sole recent production of Romeo and Juliet, this year saw a captivating West End adaptation featuring the talented duo, Tom Holland and Francesca Amewudah-Rivers.

In the latest season 3 of “Heartstopper” on Netflix, it was last observed that Connor appeared, a series that chronicles the ongoing romance between Nick Nelson and Charlie Spring.

In a recent discussion, the actor has shared insights on a widely-discussed moment from the latest installments, where his character Nick engages in a conversation with his aunt Diane (portrayed by Hayley Atwell), addressing the topic of Charlie’s eating disorder.

Hayley truly excelled in that particular scene, I must say. It was quite challenging to capture since we only had an hour to work with and the scene is not brief, as stated by him to Teen Vogue.

Initially, I must admit, I was quite anxious about it… However, I’m pleased to see that folks seem to enjoy it. To be honest, when I attempted to watch it, I found myself saying, “I’m not particularly skilled in this part.

Currently, I’m immersed in the timeless tale of Romeo and Juliet unfolding live at the Circle in the Square Theatre here in the bustling city of New York. On the other hand, when I need a break from real-life drama, I can escape to the digital world and binge on seasons 1-3 of Heartstopper, streaming smoothly on Netflix.
