About
In a city torn apart by a generations-old feud, two young people from enemy families meet by chance and fall in love at first sight. In the space of twenty-four hours, they woo, they wed, and they are torn apart. With the help of a well-meaning friar and a loyal nurse, they dare to dream of a future together.
But a duel, a banishment, and a fatal misunderstanding seal their fate. Trapped by the hatred of their families and the cruelty of fate, Romeo and Juliet will take their love to the ultimate extreme.
This is Shakespeare's timeless tragedy of passion, youth, and the price of defiance. No story of love and loss has ever been more powerful.
