The tragic story of a young love thwarted by a family feud.
Unfamiliar English accents, so prevalent in most Shakespearean production, are absent from this series. English and drama teachers, as well as the typical playgoer, will find this feature of tremendous value. Shakespeare's own language is preserved; clarity of both language and story is achieved.
Two rival Veronese families, the Montagues and the Capulets, are warned that their constant brawls must end and that death threatens anyone who disturbs the peace.
Family feuds notwithstanding, Romeo, the Montague heir, attends a masquerade dance at the home of the Capulets.Romeo and Juliet, the Capulet's daughter, meet and fall imm | | |
