The play’s prologue calls the two protagonists “star-crossed lovers”, a most fitting description of their story – one in which the Universe seems to conspire against them. The play draws elements from classical Greek tragedies, but William Shakespeare’s take on the theme of forbidden love is unique, proven by endurance in the public’s conscience and by adaptations, spanning over four centuries.
