Shakespeare used a chorus in "Romeo and Juliet" to provide a concise summary of events and set the tone for the play. By framing the story with the chorus at the beginning and end, Shakespeare creates a sense of anticipation and gives the audience a glimpse into the tragic fate of the young lovers.
