The story of Romeo and Juliet is not original. Shakespeare used a poem by Arthur Brooke (1562) “Romeus and Juliet” as the basis of his play. In either play or poem, the story of two “star-crossed lovers” has several messages (theme).

What changes does Shakespeare make to Brooke's poem-to plot, to character, and to theme? Find these.

Why do you think Shakespeare chooses to make these changes?
