# 1 - Imagine you are a reporter and write a newspaper article summarizing what’s going on in Verona, in 'Romeo and Juliet' by William Shakespeare
{}
# 2 - Write a Sonnet about the Modern Or Normal Prologue.
The Normal Prologue might make more sense

Normal Prologue:
{}
Two households both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona where we lay our scene
From ancient grudge, break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean:
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes,
A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life:
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows,
Doth with their death bury their parents’ life:
The fearful passage of their death-marked love,
And the continuance of their parents’ rage,
Which but their children’s end nought could remove,
Is now the two hours’ traffic of our stage.
The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

Modern Prologue:
{}
Our play takes place in beautiful Verona.
Two families, both of the same high rank, have recently started battling again over an ancient grudge.
Citizens’ hands have been stained with the blood of their fellow townspeople in this civil strife.
From these enemy families, a son and a daughter are destined to fall in love, sharing an unfortunate fate.
Our two-hour play will tell the sad story of their fatal love and of their parents’ bitter feuding, which only the young people's deaths could end.
