by the Capulet family, and despite the enmity
between their families, they fall deeply in love.
They marry in secret with the help of Friar
Laurence, but their happiness is short-lived as
a series of tragic events unfolds.

Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, challenges

Romeo to a duel and Romeo kills him. As
punishment, Romeo is banished from Verona.
Meanwhile, Juliet's father arranges for her to
marry another man, Paris, in an attempt to end
the feud between the families. Desperate to
avoid the marriage, Juliet seeks the help of
Friar Laurence, who devises a plan to reunite
her with Romeo.

However, the plan goes awry, and both

Romeo and Juliet end up dead. Romeo
mistakenly believes that Juliet has died and
takes his own life. When Juliet awakens and
finds Romeo dead, she also takes her own life.
