Chorus: [chorus appears on stage alone] Take a seat, one and all and prepare yourselves! For here we see a modern twist of young Romeo & Juliet's love Staged on a gazebo on a porch Our drama unfolds…. [Exit chorus] [Enter Juliet in 'gazebo'] Juliet: Romeo! Hey boy hey! Where are you? [Enter Romeo, from out of the shadows] Romeo: Juliet! Ah… what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east! And Juliet is the sun. Juliet: Why are you talking that way? Romeo: I thought it would be romantical! Juliet: And what kind of word is romantical? Romeo: [Says confidently] A made up one. Juliet: What have I told you about making up words? Romeo: [Hangs head] To not to. Juliet: Good, Romeo. [Pats Romeo on the head] Romeo: Juliet! Have you spoken to your parents? Juliet: Why, of course! I speak to them all the time. [Chuckles to herself] Romeo: But have you spoken to them about us? Juliet: Not yet Romeo: [whines] Why not??????? Juliet: You know very well why! How could my parent's accept that I am dating you? Your grandparents were in Ringling Brothers circus, While mine were in Cole brothers Circus! Romeo: Oh, yes I remember The biggest rival of Ringling Brothers was the Cole Brothers Juliet: Now do see why I can't tell them? Romeo: [pauses] Not really… Juliet: Oh Romeo!! You are thick, aren't you? Romeo: Thick what? Juliet: Thick headed! [Throws hands up] You're useless. Romeo: [lip trembles] That's so mean! Juliet: I'm sorry Romeo, honey. [Romeo's cell buzzes and he takes it from his pocket and begins to text someone. Nurse comes outside and calls Juliet] Nurse: Juliet! Juliet: [To Romeo] Brb! [Walks over to nurse] Yes, Nurse? Nurse: It is time for you to take your medication. Juliet: But I don't need it! Nurse: [looks confused] Why? Juliet: Because I already overdosed today! [Walks back to Romeo] [Nurse looks shocked, but she goes back inside] Juliet: So, Romeo, like I said before… I'm sorry I called you thick headed Romeo: Sure you're sorry. Juliet: I am! You know I love you. Romeo: [Texting] Mhhm… I love you too. Juliet: Who are you texting? Romeo: [Still texting] Rosaline. Juliet: WHAT!?!?!? [Slaps Romeo and runs inside] Romeo: [calls Rosaline] Hey Rosaline, watcha doing tonight? [Walks away]
