"Little Cyrus’ dream has always been Broadway, since the moment I did my first show in kindergarten to the countless trips to NYC squeezing in as many shows as possible into my itinerary,” Veyssi said in a statement. “I’m honored and humbled to join such a remarkable cast and crew, and to play the role of sweet May, a character whose journey is close to my heart.”

& Juliet stars Gianna Harris as Juliet, Alison Luff as Anne (with Aly Michalka beginning performances as Anne on November 3), Corey Mach as Shakespeare, Tony winner Paulo Szot and NSYNC's Joey Fatone as Lance, Jeannette Bayardelle as Angélique, Spencer Sutherland as Romeo and Anthony Gargiula as François.
