Romeo and Juliet

"what light through yonder window breaks?"
"Romeo, romeo, wherefore art thou, romeo?"

We started watching Romeo + JUliet in English class a couple days ago, which made me super jazzed because i love that play and know it by heart. i understand all the words and the true tradegy of the story.
But, i found some of my classmates couldn't understand. " 'Wherefore art thou, romeo?' " one said. "WHy can't she just say 'where the are you, dude?' "
i couldn't help but smile at that. We would've said that. Because Romeo & JUliet isn't from our time. The play takes you back into another world entirely.

The play revolves around this feud between the CApulets and the Montauges- "It has to do with hate, but more with love." They men of the families act like gang members. They brawl in the street and distrub the peace.
Then, you find lovesick , fifteen-year-old Romeo Montauge, the only son of the head of the Montauges, who yearns to be loved like his heart loves. He speaks of peace and love.
Then, you meet lovely, inncoent, thirteen-year-old Juliet Capulet, who is but a stranger to the world. As she is her father's only child, he loves her very much and keeps her inside the Capulet walls. She finds she will be wed to Count Paris, a man whom she had never met. "Can you like Paris?" "I...i look to like."
When these famour star-crossed lovers meet at a party, they fall madly in love.
They go through many trials to be together, and, in the end, they finally are.
"For never was there a tale of more woe, than this of Juliet and her Romeo."
