Plot
Giulietta and Romeo's young love is strongly opposed by their two families, the Capuletis and the Montecchis. Their feelings are intensely passionate, but they inevitably meet a tragic fate.
Changes from the Shakespeare story
Mercuzio is an omniscient character, who sings the overture and guides the meeting of Romeo and Giulietta during the party at Capuleti's home. The role of Tebaldo is circumscribed to the quarrels among the family clans. He has a scanty character and grazes madness. Lord Capuleti's role is expanded. The roles of Lady Capuleti and Lady Montecchi are eliminated.
Giulietta dies because of a heartbreak, instead of by the dagger. Padre Lorenzo is the character that indirectly decides the fate of Romeo and Giulietta driving them during the second act. At the end he will cry over the deaths together with the two fathers.
