Romeo and Juliet is perhaps Shakespeare’s most famous play...or at least the one most people have heard of. It’s a classic love story, although calling it "just a love story" feels a bit oversimplified. It’s also about family feuds, fate, teenage rebellion and the chaos that happens when you mix impulsive decisions with deep emotions. Quite relatable, really, even though it’s more than 400 years old.
