“I can’t believe I actually get to make my Broadway debut in this amazing show,” Ziegler said in a statement. “I’m so excited to work with the wonderful team at & Juliet.”

In 2024, she released her sophomore album, biting my tongue, via Hollywood Records. Expanding her acting career, Kenzie can most recently be seen starring in the independent feature She Dances alongside Ethan Hawke and Steve Zahn, which premiered this year at the Tribeca Film Festival.
In other & Juliet news, Joey Fatone and Tony winner Paulo Szot are extending in the show through November 1.

Szot plays the part from August 18-30 and October 13-18. Reese Britts will play the role for all other performances through November 1.

Created by David West Read and directed by Luke Sheppard with choreography by Jennifer Weber, & Juliet flips the script on Shakespeare’s tragedy, imagining what would happen if Juliet hadn’t ended it all over Romeo and instead got a second chance at life and love—on her own terms. & Juliet features a soundtrack jam-packed with superproducer Max Martin’s catalogue of pop hits, including "Since U Been Gone," "Teenage Dream," "Baby One More Time," "I Want It That Way" and more.
