Romeo And Juliet

Synopsis

ROMEO AND JULIET is Shakespeare's masterful tragedy about two young "star-cross'd lovers" whose deaths ultimately unite their feuding families, reputed to be the greatest play ever written. It has been adapted down through the centuries countless times for stage, opera, and more recently, musical and film. The play has been adapted in versions as diverse as MGM's 1936 film, the 1950s stage musical West Side Story, and 1996's MTV-inspired Romeo + Juliet starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
