Synopsis "Roméo & Juliette: Une tragédie amoureuse de Shakespeare (in French)"

La rivalité qui oppose les Capulets et les Montaigus ensanglante toute la ville de Vérone, au grand dam du prince Escalus. Roméo, héritier des Montaigu et follement amoureux de Rosaline, s'adonne à la mélancolie la plus noire car elle le repousse. Pour le consoler, ses amis Benvolio et Mercutio le persuadent de s'inviter incognito à la fête que les Capulets donnent en l'honneur de leur fille, Juliette; Roméo accepte puisque Rosaline y sera. Pour Juliette, persuadée par sa mère et sa nourrice, le bal sera l'occasion de rencontrer un possible futur époux, même si Capulet n'est pas pressé de marier sa fille. Au cours de ce bal, Juliette remplace totalement Rosaline dans le coeur de Roméo.

William Shakespeare (Stratford-upon-Avon, c. April 23, 1564jul. - Ibid., April 23/May 3, 1616) was an English playwright, poet, and actor. Often known as the Bard of Avon (or simply the Bard), he is considered the most important writer in the English language and one of the most famous in world literature.

According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, "Shakespeare is generally acknowledged as the greatest of all time writers, a unique figure in the history of literature. The fame of other poets, such as Homer and Dante Alighieri, or novelists such as Leo Tolstoy or Charles Dickens, has transcended national barriers, but none has achieved the reputation of Shakespeare, whose works today are read and performed more frequently and in more countries than ever. The prophecy of one of his great contemporaries, Ben Jonson, has thus been fulfilled: 'Shakespeare does not belong to one age but to eternity'".

Among his most notable works are Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. His ability to portray the complexities of human nature, along with his mastery in the use of verse and language, has made him a timeless figure.
