MAIN CHARACTERS

It is easier for the viewer to identify with people tormented by passions than with statues of ancient tragedy heroes.

Character's creations The characters of the drama are people of blood and bones, having flaws, hesitations, regretting their actions.

AWAKENING THE IMAGINATION

The tragic love of the young characters arouses a longing for a feeling that is beautiful, strong, pure and eternal.

Juliet: O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?Deny thy father and refuse thy name; Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, And I'll no longer be a Capulet. Romeo: Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this? Juliet: Tis but thy name that is my enemy; Thou art thyself, though not a Montague. What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot, Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part Belonging to a man. O, be some other name! What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet; So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd, Retain that dear perfection which he owes Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name, And for that name which is no part of thee Take all myself.

A LOVER STRONGER THAN DEATH

The protagonists have gained the title of lovers of all time, because their story ignites the emotions of the readers. It shows all stages of this feeling with subtlety, familiarity, insight and drama. The tragic end indicates the extraordinary power of feeling and shows that love, however, paradoxically overcomes death and hatred.
