  3. Romeo and Juliet


When is love more keenly felt than by the young? How can love breach the boundaries of feudal animosity and politics? Shakespeares most iconic love story unravels the mysteries of these questions and more. Set in a climate of families at odds with each other, youthful passion leads to ardor, conflict, homicide, revenge, suicide, and bereavement. The Bard takes us on a journey through the many hearts of society, reflecting both past and present. What can we learn to instruct the future?The Plot: An age-old vendetta between two powerful families erupts into bloodshed. A young lovesick Romeo Montague falls instantly in love with Juliet Capulet, who is due to marry her fathers choice, the County Paris. With the help of Juliets nurse, the women arrange for the couple to marry the next day, but Romeos attempt to halt a street fight leads to the death of Juliets own cousin, Tybalt, for which Romeo is banished. In a desperate attempt to be reunited with Romeo, Juliet follows the Friars plot and fakes her own death. The message fails to reach Romeo, and believing Juliet dead, he takes his life in her tomb. Juliet wakes to find Romeos corpse beside her and kills herself. The grieving family agree to end their feud.
