"Romeo and Juliet" is the world's most famous drama about tragic young love. They resist the feud that divides their families and enjoy the fleeting rapture of their romantic relationship, marriage, and sexual satisfaction. However, a combined effect of old rivalries and new coincidences leads them to suicidal deaths.

This work offers a rich blend of romantic lyricism, ribald comedy, intimate harmony, and sudden violence. Achieving great success in the theater, it has also inspired numerous operas, ballets, and films, which have contributed to making "Romeo and Juliet" timelessly relevant.
