The musicians in "Romeo and Juliet" want to be allowed to play music at the Capulet's house during Romeo and Juliet's wedding reception. They are disappointed when they are not permitted to do so because they do not have an invitation.
Romeo wanted to marry Juliet, while Paris wanted to marry Juliet as well in the play "Romeo and Juliet" by William Shakespeare.
Juliet's mother wanted Juliet to marry Paris, not Romeo. She did not approve of Romeo as a suitor for Juliet.
Shakespeare's primary source for Romeo and Juliet was Arthur Brooke's Romeus and Juliet, first published in 1562, two years before Shakespeare's birth, and reprinted in 1587, about eight years before the first performance of Romeo and Juliet.
This is a rewrite indeed: in Shakespeare's play there were no guests at all at Romeo and Juliet's wedding. Before deciding where they are going to park their derrieres, you might want to decide who might be invited to this event.
The nurse wants to talk to Romeo to deliver a message from Juliet in Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet. Romeo asks the nurse to tell Juliet to meet him at Friar Laurence's cell that afternoon so they can get married.

"Wherefore" means "why." In Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet, when Juliet says "Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo," she is asking why Romeo has to be a Montague, from a rival family to her own. She is questioning why they are from families that are enemies.
It's a style of writing called 'tragedy.' Something that is generally unacceptable and "tragic" for the readers. Romeo and Juliet's being a Tragedy is what made it controversial and interesting enough because of an ending we do not want to happen to ourselves. If shakespeare made a different ending, we may not be talking about it now.
This question is a bit vague. Certainly there have been operas (about 27 of them) and at least one famous Ballet which are based directly on Shakespeare's play. These are shows of a sort. A huge number of films have been made which use Shakespeare's plot and language. If you want to include all the films and television shows which have used the name and vague idea of the plot in some other bizarre context, the number and variety of them is mind-boggling: from Romeo and Juliet with Herpes to Romeo and Juliet: A Monkey's Tale to The Secret Sex Lives of Romeo and Juliet to Gnomeo and Juliet.
It isn't. Shakespeare did not specify any time setting for the play. So basically you can set it any time you want to.
very little was known about shakespeare, he never really was social or showed, talked about his works, its very unclear what age he had written the play.AnswerSince Shakespeare's play were not published until later, it is hard to determine exactly when he wrote some of them. Romeo & Juliet was written somewhere between 1591 and 1595, which would have made Shakespeare somewhere between the ages of 27 and 31.
romeo because romeo loves juliet.
