"Romeo & Juliet": Shakespeare's Classic and Tragic Love Story

Few plays are as gorgeously written -- or as heartwrenching -- as Shakespeare's tale of star-crossed lovers, "Romeo & Juliet". More than four centuries after its first staging, few works in any medium match the intensity and beauty of this timeless tragedy. Two families, the Montagues and the Capulets, have been feuding for years. But when young Romeo Montague goes out with his friends to make trouble at a Capulet party, he spies Juliet, the Capulets' daughter, and falls hopelessly in love with her. Will love conquer all? Or will these two young lovers get caught in the crossfire of their family's bloody feud? For the first time ever, Glendale's Spotlight Youth Theatre will stage a work of Shakespeare's with this classic, beautiful story.
