Prepare to be spellbound as we venture into the captivating world of Shakespearean plays, specifically Romeo and Juliet. I promise you, this is unlike any literature class you've attended before. I bring to you a gripping TED talk by Akala of the Hip-Hop Shakespeare company, an innovative approach that makes the Bard's poetic structure relatable for hip-hop fans. But that's not all. We also take an in-depth look into the prologue of Romeo and Juliet, discussing its purpose and significance. 

As we explore Romeo and Juliet, I share insights, resources, and strategies to enhance your understanding of the play. Listen closely to find out my personal favorite scenes, my responses to your questions, and my ultimate thoughts on this timeless masterpiece. Remember, you're not alone on this journey.
