Shakespeare Articles

As we watch the adaptation of Romeo and Juliet, annotate these two articles on the adaptability of Shakespeare in general and of this particular film version of the play.

In your annotations, you may also want to consider the more classical adaptation of The Tempest that we watched last week along with the variations of the Balcony Scene that we watched last Friday.
