Description
One of the most well-known love stories of all time; a love "too rash, too unadvised, too sudden."
Romeo and Juliet get involved in a romantic relationship against the wills of their feuding families, utilizing the help of a priest to sanction their marriage. Through circumstance, blood, deception, and tragedy, the story unfolds. Will the young lovers overcome generations of pain and hate? Will the feud between their families overcome them? Or will their rashness, youth, and impatience bring about their final downfall?
