Episode 163

My background reading while preparing the episode on Romeo and Juliet took me to many stories about and thoughts on the afterlife of the play and its continuing influence on western culture, what follows is just a few stories and thoughts that illustrate that continuing influence.

Verona and Juliet’s Statue

Juliet’s tomb

Cibber’s Juliet

Franco Zeffirelli’s film for the ‘love generation’

West Side Story
