Shakespeare and Me | Page 13

This is a romantic scene, that’s why it’s my favourite one. My favourite character is Romeo because when he realised that Juliet was dead he drank the deadly poison too, kissed her and died. He was loyal to her and couldn’t live without her. He loved her so much, so he decided to put an end to his life when he saw her dead. Chrisanthi Konstantopoulou, age 11  The theme of “Romeo and Juliet” is true love. The scene which impressed me was when Juliet saw that Romeo was dead and stabbed herself. She is my favourite heroine. But I would prefer it if they had lived and moved to another place together. Irini Metaliki, age 11 Romeo wanted to die when he found out that his loving wife was dead. He was so sad that he drank the poison so that he could meet her again. That was very impressive to me! I couldn’t choose between Romeo and Juliet as my favourite character of the play. They both died in the name of love, so they are both heroes. Anastasis Laganis, age 11 Here’s Romeo under Juliet’s balcony. I can see a lot of colourful flowers and a very big green tree next to Juliet’s balcony. I like this scene because it’s very romantic. Cillia Geranou, age 11
