The plot of the play Romeo and Juliet was not actually an original to William Shakespeare. "The Tragicall Historye of Romeus and Juliet" by Arthur Brooke is supposedly where he got the story. However, Brooke borrowed the story too. In fact it is fair to say that every version of Romeo and Juliet that we know of borrowed most of its plot from an earlier source.
