have theatres shut down merely because they
believed it was wrong. The church also disallowed
female participation in the theatre. So, in
Shakespeare's time, Juliet would have been played
by a young boy. Shakespeare used astrological
terms in many of his plays. ...

portray themselves as rash and impulsive who are
filled deeply with emotions. Their elders, on the

different angle. This leads to the elders not
understanding the feelings of Romeo and Juliet,
