INVINCIBLE - The Musical, featuring the music of Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo, reimagines the timeless story of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet for the 21ST century through an intricate weaving of the four-time GRAMMY Award-winners and 2022 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees' legendary catalog and inspired new songs. This wildly inventive new musical explores how love and equality battle for survival in times of great transformation. Join our star-crossed lovers in the modern, war-torn metropolis of Verona as the newly elected Chancellor Paris vows to destroy the progressive resistance and return the city to its traditional roots. INVINCIBLE - The Musical imagines peace in a divided world.

Broadway World - Somewhat Recommended

"...Toward the end of the play, two different actors sing - quite powerfully - over Juliet's corpse. For the sake of Romeo and Juliet and the future of their two plagued houses, it's a mighty good thing the individual who sings the second tune - "We Belong" - does not rush things. INVINCIBLE offers up not quite the ending you may be expecting and the play's conclusion drew audience chuckles on opening night which I'm fairly certain are not what the makers of INVINCIBLE are looking for."

"...Power ballads and rock classics made famous in the ‘80s by the legendary Pat Benatar provide the pulsating soundtrack to Invincible – The Musical, Bradley Bredeweg’s edgy, exhilarating take on Shakespeare’s Romeo And Juliet, now getting its World Premiere at The Wallis in Beverly Hills."

"...Benatar and Giraldo have been personally involved with Invincible since its inception – they actually sent a cease and desist to the first workshop (which conflicted with another theatre piece they were developing) before changing their minds and blessing the project. If anything, Invincible’s greatest weakness may be in its stellar and faithful execution of Benatar and Giraldo’s music – the show leans more toward concert than musical and has little in common with Romeo and Juliet except for its pair of star-crossed lovers. However, it’s so fun that even the most faithful Shakespeare fans will forgive."

"...As my mind went numb watching the mayhem on stage, I was desperately trying to figure out how soon I could manage a marathon viewing of the Zeffirelli Romeo and Juliet (1968) as well as Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet (1996) along with both versions of West Side Story (1961 and 2021). Hopefully they will heal my soul and ears soon."

Its Not About Me - Highly Recommended

"...But it’s really of no matter right now; fans of Pat Benatar’s music will flock to the Wallis to see Invincible, as well they should! But Angelenos need to hightail it there—the show is here for just two more weeks!"
