Watch Romeo and Juliet

Few works so completely capture a universal aspect of human experience the way Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" captures pure and idealistic love. Few works have lasted in time and been so beloved that they are refreshed with each generation. Look at popular music charts and references will abound. Look at school productions and the play will be there. Here now is the story expressed in stunning animation in an age sensitive portrayal aimed at pre and young teen audiences (8 to 16). We forget sometimes that Shakespeare's Juliet was thirteen years old and Romeo not much older.
