    Everyone is deserving of love - rich, poor, young, old - even Montague or Capulet. This timeless story of tragic romance transcends the ages as two teenagers fall in love at first sight. Married in secret, they hope for reconciliation between their feuding families, but as flaring tempers lead to deadly consequences, the "pair of star-cross'd lovers" find themselves alone and on the run, facing impossible odds and making desperate decisions. The compelling events blended with extraordinary poetry make Shakespeare's story as dynamic to a contemporary audience as it was 400 years ago.
