Dancer and Social Media superstar Charli D’Amelio will make her Broadway debut this fall, joining the company of the hit Broadway musical & Juliet, producers announced today. D’Amelio, who spent more than a decade as a competitive dancer before launching her social media career and becoming the world’s most followed TikToker, begins performances as part of the ensemble in the dance-heavy role of ‘Charmian’ beginning October 29, 2024 at the Sondheim Theatre (124 West 43rd Street) for a limited three-month engagement through January 19, 2025.
"I’m beyond excited to join the Broadway community—it’s a dream I’ve had since I was a little girl," D’Amelio said. "To be able to make my Broadway debut – especially in the cast of & Juliet, is truly a dream come true, and I can't wait to share this experience with everyone."
