What is the play Romeo and Juliet about? 

"Parting is such sweet sorrow."

The two oldest families in Verona, the Capulets and Montagues, have been feuding for an age. So when Juliet, the Capulets' youngest daughter, and Romeo, a Montague, fall for each other at a party during the height of summer, their forbidden love and whirlwind romance spark a series of events that can only end in tragedy… 

The History of Romeo and Juliet 

Romeo and Juliet is one of William Shakespeare’s most performed tragedies. The plot is loosely based on an Italian tale by Matteo Bandello, which is one of many such tragic love stories, and which was translated into verse in 1562 as The Tragical History of Romeus and Juliet by Arthur Brooke, and later in prose in 1567 as part of the story collection Palace of Pleasure by William Painter. Shakespeare’s version of the story was inspired by both translations, but was significantly expanded, adding supporting characters and secondary plots. The play is believed to have been written between 1591 and 1595, as part of the first folio.

Romeo and Juliet has been revived and adapted numerous times, including several times for film with significant adaptations including the 1968 version by Franco Zeffirelli and Baz Luhrmann's 1996 Romeo + Juliet, which starred Clare Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio.
