If you touch me, I’ll start a fight. But our masters are quarreling, and we are only their servants. I’ll show my villainy when I deal with the men. Down with everyone's heads! - Well, yes, heads or whatever, they'll have to understand that, depending on how they feel me, as long as I'm able to hold on. , you know, not a bad piece of meat! It’s good that you are not a fish, otherwise you would be a dried cod. Pull out your sword: two people from the Montagues’ house are coming here! Start a quarrel, I’m behind you. me - and run away? - Don’t be afraid for me! - I’m afraid you’ll run away. We need the law to be on our side: let them start a quarrel. I frown as I pass them; let them take it as they wish. No, how dare they! I'll show them the trick. They will not tolerate such an insult. Are you showing us the fig, sir? I'm just pointing the finger, sir. Are you showing us a fig, sir? - Will the law be on our side if I answer “yes”? - No. No, sir! I'm not showing you the cookie, sir. I'm just showing it, sir! - Do you want to start a quarrel, sir? - A quarrel, senor? Oh no, sir! But if you wish, sir, then I am at your service. I serve a good master like you. Not the best? Tell the best one: our master’s nephew is coming here. No - to the best, sir! You are lying! Gregory! Remember your vaunted blow Stop, fool! Put your swords in their sheaths! You don't know what you're doing! Here, Benvolio, meet your death! I reconciled them. Sheathe your sword. Or use it to separate them. With a sword in hand - talk about peace? I even hate that word. Like hell, like all Montagues, like yourself! Coward, start! Beat the Capulets! Beat the Montagues! What's all the noise here? Give me my long sword! Crutch, crutch! What do you need your sword for? A sword, they say! Look, old Montague is waving his sword like that to spite me. You vile Capulet! - Don't hold it! - I won’t let you get closer to the enemy! Rioters! Who is disturbing the peace? Who defiles his sword with the blood of his neighbors? They don't listen! Hey, hey, you people! Animals! You extinguish the fire of criminal malice with a stream of purple from your veins, under pain of torture, from bloody hands, throw your weapons to the ground and listen to what your angry duke has decided. Three times already in my presence civil strife, which found its beginning and birth in words, by you, old Capulet, by you, Montagues, thrown to the wind, confused the world on the streets of Verona and forced elderly citizens, having taken off their decent attire, to grab with a decrepit hand an old weapon, gnawed by the rust of the world, so that soothe the anger gnawing at you. But if you ever dare to disturb the peace of our peaceful streets again, you will pay for it with your life. Now everyone disperse immediately. Follow me, Capulets... You, Montagues, come in the afternoon to find out our decision. So, on pain of death, disperse! But where is Romeo? - you do not know? It’s fortunate that he didn’t take part in the quarrel! An hour before the sun ray looked through the golden window of the east, I went for a walk to dispel my sadness, - And behold, in the shady grove of sycamore trees That stretches from the city to the west, I saw your son, sir. I went to him. He me
Juliet:
My dear, I ran to visit my relatives. It’s been a long time since I visited them, my dear ones!
Romeo:
Well, how long ago? Only yesterday you secretly
She snuck into her parents' house next door,
I sharpened my lasses there half the night, count it!
Juliet:
You've gone overboard, Romeo! I went with my mother to choose a veil, they decided to marry me off!
Romeo:
Where? For whom?
Juliet:
For you, my dear, because you are my fiancé and forever a hero!
Romeo:
Oh Gods! Marry! Why do I need this?
Why should I darken my existence?
You and I coo together like birds.
Tell me, is our life bad now?
Juliet:
But my mother said: it’s time for me to get married!
And, what is now is just a game.
It’s bad for the unmarried, they won’t be accepted in heaven, I give myself to you forever!
Romeo:
“Forever,” beloved, an empty exclamation,
I want to be single for a couple of years,
And dad said: “Don’t rush, son!”
Juliet:
Is this what dad advises? How could he?
Romeo:
Dad only told me not to rush.
Juliet:
So that you live in sin and continue to sin?
He is a treacherous old man and an evil fool!
Now for my family he is only an enemy!
Romeo:
Of course of course! And your mother meddles in business and doesn’t let me live.
He’ll come and babble without a heart in his chest: “Romeo, grow up, find a job, get some money to buy a car!”
So no, to give that car as a gift.
Juliet:
But your old man won’t give you a ruble!
Romeo:
And three hundred “bucks” a week doesn’t count?
Your trinkets, tons of cosmetics...
Juliet:
Is this squalor? Beggars' bag!
We live on mom’s money, honey!
Romeo:
Like mom's? This is the first time I've heard about it!
Juliet:
Well, no, dear, you attacked the wrong ones!
A war between families, that is, a scandal!
Until you give your consent to marriage!
Romeo:
Hey guys, did you hear? Just atas!
Where should I get married? At sixteen years old?
You're not even fifteen, honey!
Juliet:
But we are in love! And we live together!
And we sing songs of love like birds!
Romeo:
But finish school, then college!
There are also temptations all around!
Juliet:
But mom said...
Romeo:
And dad said...
Leading: Well, that’s it, there’s definitely a scandal between the families!!!
Dedicated to Valentine's Day, the day of all lovers.
Scene from W. Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet" (translation by D.Ya. Mikhalovsky)
Night. Juliet's balcony is covered with flowers. There is the moon and stars in the sky.
Juliet captivated his gaze,
He himself is loved—dangerous love!
As the enemy of Juliet's family, he does not dare
Enter her house with recognition as yours;
And has no hope
She wants to meet him.
But time sends them cases,
And the ardor of love gives them courage
For meetings - and a moment of bliss consoles
And it pours sweet joy into the heart...
(Romeo enters. Juliet appears at the window.)
But, hush, what is that light in her window?
It is the east, and in it Juliet is the sun.
Rise, rise, beautiful luminary,
And eclipse the light of the envious moon;
She has already turned pale from grief,
Jealous that you, her servant,
You far surpass her in beauty...
Her face shines with these stars
It would darken the daylight like a lamp,
And there would be such a bright light in the sky
Her eyes poured out a stream,
Like the birds, mistaking the night for a bright day,
They would sing. Here's your cheek on your hand
She bowed... as I would like
Be a glove on this white hand.
To touch her cheeks to me!
JULIET:
Oh, woe is me!
That's what she says.
Oh, continue, my radiant angel!
You are in the darkness of the night above my head
You shine like a winged messenger from heaven...
JULIET:
Romeo! Why are you Romeo?
Oh, renounce your father,
On behalf of; and if you don't want to.
Then swear your love only to me -
And then I won’t be a Capulet.
ROMEO (to himself):
Should I answer or should I still listen?
JULIET:
You are my enemy only in your name, but
By yourself you are not a Montague at all...
Oh, choose another name...
What's in a name? Whatever you call the rose -
The aroma will remain the same:
So is Romeo with a different name
It will remain just as perfect.
Part with your name,
Romeo, and in return for this name,
In which there is not even a part of you, all of it
Take me!
Catch you up on that.
Just call me your love -
And I will be baptized again
And I will forever lose my name.
JULIET:
Who are you, hidden in the darkness of the night,
Overheard my confessions?
I don't dare tell you who I am
By name, oh dear, holy:
That name, as your enemy, is hateful to me.
I would tear it apart if I
I saw it written on paper.
JULIET:
You haven't said two more words like me
Are you Romeo? Montagues?
And not Montagues, if disgust
You have feelings for both names.
JULIET:
How did you get here and why?
How could you climb over the garden wall,
Tall and smooth? And death
To you, when one of my relatives
He will find you here.
Through this wall
I flew on the wings of love.
It is impossible with a stone fence
Contain love, - it is ready for anything, -
Your family is not a hindrance to me.
JULIET:
They'll kill you when they see you.
Your eyes are more dangerous to me
Than twenty of their swords;
Just look with affection -
And their malice will not matter to me.
JULIET:
I wouldn't want for anything in the world,
So that they can see you.
I am hidden from their gaze by the cover of night.
But let them find me here
If only you loved me; it's better
My life will end from their malice.
How will it last without your love?
JULIET:
Who showed you the way here?
My love: she led me
And she gave me advice; I am for it
Gave her eyes...
JULIET:
My face is covered with a mask of night,
Otherwise you would have seen how it is
I blushed with shame for those words
Confessions that you just overheard.
I would like to maintain decency,
I would like, I would like to renounce
From your words - but away from such lies!
Do you love me? Forward I know
What do you say “yes”, and your words
Enough for me. If you would swear to this,
Then, all the same, you could deceive, -
After all, they say, over the vows of lovers
Zeus laughs. Oh my dear Romeo,
When you love me, it's for me
Tell me sincerely...I
She herself would be less accessible.
If only you hadn't taken me by surprise
And my true love confession
I didn't hear. So forgive me
And don’t consider this accommodating
For frivolity in love: my love
Only the darkness suddenly opened up at night.
I swear by the moon that it's like silver
Showered the tops of these trees...
JULIET:
No, don't swear by the changing moon,
Changing her look every month.
So that your love, like hers,
It didn't turn out to be changeable.
What should I swear to?
JULIET:
There is no need for vows at all;
Or, if you want to make an oath to me,
That with your own beautiful being
Swear; you are my divine idol,
And I will believe you.
If hearts
Cherished love...
JULIET:
No, don't swear.
Although I am glad of your love, but this
The night vow does not make me happy:
He is too fast, sudden, reckless,
And he looks too much like lightning,
Which, having sparkled, will disappear before...
Goodbye, good night! May that world
And that peace will flow into your heart,
With which mine is filled.
And you will leave without reassuring me?
JULIET:
What kind of peace do you want?
Are you this night?
Your love vow.
JULIET:
But I already made this oath before,
What did you ask for her? But still I
I would like to have it in stock.
Do you want to take her back?
Why, my friend?
JULIET:
To be generous again
Give it to you. However I
I want what I already have:
There are no limits to my generosity,
And my love is deep as the sea;
And the more I give to you,
The more I have left, -
There is no end to them.
My name is. Goodbye,
My dear. - I’m coming now, nanny!..
Be faithful to me, my dear Montague.
Wait just a minute; I'll be back.
(Moves away from the window.)
Blessed and sweet night!
But all this is not a nightmare.
So sweet and wonderful that they
Is it really impossible to transform?
JULIET (appearing at the window again):
ROMEO (returning):
My darling is calling me...
How sweet the words of lovers sound
In the silence of the night, tenderly cherishing my hearing,
The dawn has come, and the world is sad with it.
Because of grief the sun did not appear;
Let's go away and talk some more
About the disaster that happened that night.
Juliet and young Romeo with her...
What could be sadder than their fate?

Romeo and Juliet
Musical
Ksenia Yartseva
Scene 1 "Feud"
The “Overture” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” is playing, Russian version.
Verona is a war zone.
Two clans - Capulets and Montagues -
The Capulet and Montague families come out and stand opposite each other.
Wealth and birth are equal
In ancient times
We quarreled.
No one will remember now those reasons
Which was the cause of discord.
A pack of dogs will appear to be squabbling
The innocent cooing of doves
Compared to the enmity of the most respectable families.
Countless number of men
Of these two noblest families,
That they were mutilated, killed
On the field of this long-term battle.
I told this so that it becomes clear to you,
What serves as the background of our plot -
Tragedies "Romeo and Juliet".
The Prince of Verona comes out.
All
Prince!
Prince
Nothing can surprise you,
But you think so in vain,
Welcome, friends,
Verona is glad to see you.
I am the local prince and shouldn’t I know
How do the plebeians and nobility live here?
There is only seemingly grace here,
But this is just a deception.
Among beauties and beauties,
You might be lucky
If not, blame yourself.
Welcome friends!
The melody “Verona” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” sounds, Russian version
Prince
Benvolio, Mercutio - two friends.
Benvolio and Mercutio take a step forward and bow.
Prince
Mercutio is a distant relative to me.
Mercutio and the Prince gesture towards each other.
Mercutio
My prince, although you are my relatives,
But you can't tame me!
Prince
But Tybalt is the instigator of fights,
Their blood enemy.
Tybalt
I don't care about your law
After all, I am always armed!
I was kinder than my father
The end of patience has come!
The Dance of Hostility is performed to the music from the ballet “Romeo and Juliet” by S. Prokofiev “Dance of the Knights”
Prince
People of Verona, I'm tired of your quarrels!
There was a conversation, but there will be a verdict!
To you, Capulets, and to you, Montagues,
I order you to stop the war!
Don't disturb the peace of our streets!
If you fight for the honor of the crown,
For peace and prosperity of Verona!
The melody “Feud” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” sounds, Russian version
Everyone leaves except Benvolio and Lady Montague.
Scene 2 "Romeo"
Lady Montague
Benvolio! Benvolio!
Benvolio
Yes, auntie.
Lady Montague
Wait, I need to ask you something, nephew.
Benvolio
Here we go again. I'm like a sweet gingerbread
Tormented by the annoying flies.
Oh, auntie, while we're talking,
A wonderful life, a unique moment
It will rush past.
I'd rather run to you in the evening,
We'll have a nice chat over some tea.
Lady Montague
Stop, I say, I’m coming down to you now!
Benvolio
Oh, auntie, don't be angry, I'm trying,
But the legs are not subject to the head,
She has one, but, excuse me, two legs.
Lady Montague
Where's Romeo? Have you met him?
Wasn't he here? Is he really unharmed?
Benvolio
I don’t know, probably in bed,
He dreams about love.
Lady Montague
Do you know who she is?
Benvolio
He doesn't know it himself
In love with the very fact of being in love.
Lady Montague
It's better this way
The stupidity of your fights.
Find him and bring him to me!
Benvolio
But, aunt!
Lady Montague
Find and bring!
Lady Montague goes backstage.
Benvolio
Find and bring! Where should I look for him?
After all, I am his friend - not his mother.
I would like to understand the situation:
All women and even some men
They are looking for our Romeo,
They want to ask him different questions.
Nobody needs Benvolio!(calls Romeo)
Romeo! Romeo! Romeo!
Benvolio goes backstage.
Romeo comes out.
Romeo
Premonition of love
You are made of dreams,
Indistinct, vague words,
Of untold verses,
Where in the golden dust
Light and shadow play.
Premonition of love
That the day is somewhere nearby,
When I meet you,
My heavenly angel
Angel unknown!
Benvolio comes out.
Benvolio
Romeo! Greetings to you on a wonderful morning!
Romeo
The morning of sadness is never wonderful...
Benvolio
You're talking in riddles. What are you doing? In love?
Romeo
I'm drowned in love!
Benvolio
Come up!
Madame Montague, your mother,
She told me to bring you to her.
Benvolio and Romeo leave
Count Capulet and Paris appear on stage
Scene 3 "Matchmaking"
Count Capulet
The same fine was imposed on Montague,
Like me; and us, two old men,
I think it would not be difficult to live in peace.
Paris
You are both deeply respected,
And it’s a pity that your discord continues.
But why are you interested in my matchmaking?
Will you tell me?
Count Capulet
I'll repeat what I already said:
After all, my daughter is still just a child,
She is not yet fourteen years old.
Wait another two years,
And we will declare our daughter a bride.
Paris
They marry younger than she.
Count Capulet
But this early maturity is harmful.
My hopes were devoured by the grave,
And Heaven only saved my daughter.
Face her, dear Paris, -
That's all it takes for us to get along.
Find out her wishes in advance
And I bless you in advance.
Tonight we have a reception -
We set up an annual holiday.
A lot of people will gather here.
We will be glad to see you.
Count Capulet and Paris leave, the Nurse appears on the stage

Scene 4 "Juliet's Room"
Lady Capulet
Nurse, rather: where is Juliet?
Nurse (towards the backstage)
Juliet, where are you? What a fidget!
Juliet enters the stage.
Juliet
What else?
Nurse
Mommy is calling you.
Juliet (curtsy)
I'm here. What, mother, do you want?
Lady Capulet
It's sad, but nevertheless
We can't live without marriage
Our female lot is
You need to get married!
Husbands are our goal, husbands are our pain,
You have grown up, now you can become a wife!
Nurse
And if you're lucky...
Love will come later.
Juliet
I don't know, mom, it's so sudden,
I think it's probably too early for me.
Lady Capulet
It's better sooner than the other way around
Well, I'm in a hurry, your dad is waiting for me.
Paris showed concern for your fate.
What do you say? Is he after your heart?
In our opinion, a very successful case -
You will study it today at the ball.
Well, will you take care of his special one?
Juliet
Do not know yet. We need to do a test.
But this is only for you.
I'm just following your order.
Everyone leaves.
Mercutio, Benvolio and Romeo appear on the stage.
Scene 5 "Ball"
Mercutio
My friends! My friends!
There is amazing news for you.
Benvolio
Which? Mercutio, don't be tormented! Post it quickly!
Romeo
Sorry, Mercutio, I have no time for news.
Mercutio
Romeo, stop making me sad.
Benvolio
Melancholy suits lovers.
Mercutio
They're giving the Capulets a ball today!
Romeo
Are we invited?
Mercutio
I'm personally invited!
Mercutio puts on a carnival mask.
Benvolio
I don’t care, I’ll go without an invitation!
Benvolio puts on a carnival mask.
Romeo
Somehow it’s not clever, Benvolio!
Benvolio
Make a decision!
After all, it’s class to come to your enemies’ ball.
Mercutio
Nobody has done such a trick!
Romeo puts on a carnival mask.
Juliet, Lady Montague, Lady Capulet, Count Montague, Count Capulet, Paris, 3 ladies come onto the stage - all wearing carnival masks.
The melody “Kings of the Night Verona” plays (minus). The padegras dance is performed. In the middle of the dance, everyone freezes, the love theme from the film “Romeo and Juliet” plays. Romeo and Juliet perform the Dance of Love. Then the ball continues.
After the end of the dance, everyone disperses on stage, Romeo remains in the center of the stage.
Romeo
Its radiance eclipsed the torches.
She is like bright beryl
There are arapkas in my ears, it’s too light
For a world of ugliness and evil.
Like a dove among a flock of crows,
I can immediately distinguish her in a crowd.
Oh, renounce this, my sight!
Have I ever loved before?
Oh no, they were false goddesses.
I have not known true beauty until now.
The Nurse passes by Romeo. Romeo turns to her.
And who is she?
Nurse
Where are you?
She is the head of the family, the mistress of the house.
And this is their daughter, believe me, sir.
The news hit you like thunder.
Romeo
Can't be… So this is Capulet?
I'm in the enemy's hands and caught in a net!
Romeo moves to the edge of the stage. The nurse remains in the center of the stage, and Juliet approaches her.
Juliet
Nurse, listen:
Who is this guest at the exit in the corner?
Nurse
And this, it seems, is Petruchio Jr.
Juliet
And the one who approached him?
Nurse
Don't know.
Juliet
Go find out.
The nurse leaves to join the dispersers.
Juliet
And if he's married,
Let them cut me a shroud for the wedding.
Nurse (returning)
His name is Romeo. He's a Montague
The son of your sworn enemy.
Everyone leaves the stage except Juliet and the Nurse.
Juliet
I am the embodiment of hateful power
Inopportunely, out of ignorance, I fell in love!
What can the times promise me?
When am I so passionate about the enemy?
Lady Capulet (offstage)
Juliet!
Nurse
We hear, we hear! I know I know!
Everyone left. Let's go too, dear.
Juliet and the Nurse go backstage.
The melody “Premonition of Love” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” sounds, Russian version
Juliet comes out without a mask and with a rose.
Scene 6 "Balcony"
Juliet
In one heavenly book,
What do the gods write in the stars?
In the chapter “Love”, probably
The line is about Romeo and me.
How sweet is the forbidden fruit -
Romeo and Juliet.
Romeo comes out.
Romeo
In another heavenly book,
Where are the intrigues, lies, intrigues,
In the chapter “Feud”, how strange it is,
Coats of arms of our two clans.
Ready to pray to the gods
Ready to fight the enemy
To be with sweet Juliet
To unite forever.
The theme of love from the movie "Romeo and Juliet" is playing in the background.
Juliet
Am I really in love?
And this passion of mine is called Montague?
Romeo
Let's forget our names
Let's be alone with love!
Juliet
My love Romeo is so strong
That I’ll go crazy alone with her!
Do not leave me.
Romeo
I myself want to stay.
Today, tomorrow... forever!
After all, this is proof of love!
Do you need other reasons?
Juliet
Don't know…
Become my husband, call me my wife.
Marriage is the main evidence of love.
Romeo
Agree!
Juliet
No, wait, take this rose.
You will return it when you set the wedding date.
Romeo
I'll hurry!
Juliet
I will wait, because the rose quickly fades!
Romeo
Love you!
They disperse in different directions. The theme of love becomes louder. Romeo returns with a rose. Lorenzo enters the stage.
Scene 7 “The Agreement with the Priest”
Romeo
Oh, brother Lorenzo, you are my confessor,
A faithful mediator between me and God.
I love!
Lorenzo
Love again...
Romeo
I love you more than ever!
Lorenzo
It's not a big sin
Romeo
Her name is Juliet
Lorenzo
Any Juliette is worthy of you.
Romeo
No, there is only one Juliet - Capulet.
Lorenzo
Capulet?!.. Are you crazy?
Really, my son, don’t you understand?
What forces of evil with just this thought
Are you calling for revenge?
Such a union is worse than the plague!
Romeo
Brother, I ask you to marry her and me.
Lorenzo
Love like this is tantamount to death.
Romeo
How to know
Perhaps love has come to us,
To prove that strife is tormenting our families in vain.
Lorenzo
You're right Romeo!.. You're right...
Madness is sometimes stronger than reason.
And this sky sends a sign
So that your union ends the war at once.
I will marry you.
Romeo
Thank you father!
Lorenzo
No need for gratitude, son.
Love Juliet and God bless you.
Lorenzo leaves.
Romeo
He will marry us, he will marry us!
The Nurse enters.
Nurse
Romeo, Romeo, do you really love Juliet?
Romeo
Yes, it's true, I love her.
Nurse
What should we do? It doesn't get any easier hour by hour.
Romeo
All is decided!
Give Juliet this rose
Tell me, I will wait for her at the monastery.
Today Lorenzo will marry us.
Nurse
But if Lorenzo helps you,
Then the Lord is on your side!
Romeo leaves.
The melody “Two Wings of Love” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” sounds, Russian version
My girl, we may be of different blood,
A blood child cannot be loved more deeply.
I was sleeping yesterday
You're on my chest
And now you've grown up,
It's time for love
You were able to take off
Above troubles, above evil
And soar above the ground, soar,
Oh, Lord, let her love!
The nurse leaves.
The melody “Blessing” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” sounds, Russian version
Lorenzo comes out, followed by Romeo and Juliet.
Scene 8 "Wedding"
Romeo
Love is hidden in secret.
Angel of broken hearts
Your protection.
Juliet (speaks to music or sings)
God, we are in your power.
Is it possible to run away from passion?
Give us, in the name of all lovers,
A little happiness.
Romeo and Juliet(in unison)
Extend the moment! Extend the moment!
Only love is salvation. Salvation in love!
Everyone leaves.
The theme of enmity sounds.
Mercutio (with a sword) and Benvolio appear on the stage.
Scene 9 "Duel"
Benvolio
Please, Mercutio, let's leave.
Today it's hot. Capulets are everywhere.
We can't avoid troubles
And the blood boils in my veins from the heat.
Mercutio
It's easy to get under your skin,
In the heat and rain you are ready to draw your sword.
Tybalt (with a sword), Paris, and Count Capulet appear on the stage (from the opposite side).
Tybalt
Follow me, friends! I'll talk to them. A word or two, no more, gentlemen!
Mercutsi
A word or two? Tell me how important it is! I thought it was a hit or two.
Benvolio
In vain we make noise among the crowd.
One of two things: let's retire - or
Let's discuss the dispute with a cold soul
And we'll go our separate ways. They are watching from everywhere.
Mercutio
And to your health. For that eye.
Let them watch! I won't budge.
Romeo enters.
Tybalt
Leave me alone! Here is the person I need.
Romeo, the essence of my feelings for you
Everything can be expressed in a word: you are a bastard.
Romeo
I'm not a bastard at all. Be healthy.
I see you don't know me at all.
Tybalt
Words cannot calm irritation,
Which you always excite.
Romeo
It's not true, I didn't offend you.
And soon the news will reach you,
Which will make us closely related.
Let's part as friends, Capulet!
You hardly know how dear you are to me.
Mercutio (moves Romeo away with a sword)
Cowardly, contemptible submission!
I must wash away her shame with blood!
Everyone performs the dance “Sword Fighting” to the music from the ballet “Romeo and Juliet” by S. Prokofiev “Dance of the Knights”, during which Tybalt wounds Mercutio. Benvolio picks up Mercutio, Mercutio drops his sword. Tybalt (with sword), Paris, Count Capulet leave.
Mercutio
Stabbed!
The plague has taken both of your families!
Because of you, I became food for worms.
Everything is ashes!
Benvolio carries Mercutio off the stage.
Romeo (raising Mercutio's sword)
I silently endured a mortal insult:
Tybalt insulted me in front of everyone,
Tybalt, who is soon over an hour
Became my family! Thanks to you,
Juliet, I'm becoming too soft.
Benvolio (returning)
Romeo, our Mercutio is gone.
His fearless spirit ascended to the sky,
Romeo
Bad day! One murder is...
A bad omen for the future.
The theme of enmity sounds.
Tybalt (with sword), Paris, Count Capulet return.
Benvolio
You see, here comes bloody Tybalt again!
Romeo
How, unharmed and at the pinnacle of glory?
Was he killed? Shut up, kindness!
Everyone performs the “Sword Fight” dance to the music from the ballet “Romeo and Juliet” by S. Prokofiev “Dance of the Knights”, during which Romeo kills Tybalt. Paris and the Count of Capulet carry Tybalt off the stage.
The Prince, Lorenzo and Lady Montague come out
Prince
Romeo, for a lawless act
He will be expelled from Verona immediately!
And if he doesn't follow the order,
He will be put to death at that very hour!
Romeo
I'm expelled from Verona! I'm an outcast!
Juliet, my angel, I cannot live apart.
The prince leaves.
Lady Montague
What kind of torment is there for sin?
Do you, heaven, doom mothers?
Life ends with the loss of children!
Romeo
Goodbye, mother, I am not welcome here.
In exile, I will die alone!
Lady Montague leaves.
Lorenzo
Our prince expelled you,
Saved your life, son.
Who's right and who's wrong
Only God will judge.
Everyone leaves.
Juliet is on stage. The Nurse enters.
Scene 10 "The Pain of Loss"
Nurse
Well, Tybalt is killed,
Your Romeo killed.
Fate doesn't tell you
Become husband and wife.
Sad is our lot on earth -
The bride will be a widow.
Juliet
Should I blame my wife? Poor husband
Where can you hear a good word?
When his wife doesn't say it either
In the third hour of marriage? Oh robber
He killed his cousin!
But would it be better if in a fight
Did this robber kill you, brother?
Go back to your origins, tears!
You are out of place, tributaries of melancholy!
Nurse
Well, so be it. I know where Romeo is.
Take comfort, baby. I'll find him.
And I will certainly deliver it by evening.
I'll go now. He's in the monastery.
Juliet
Put a ring on his nameless one,
And let him come to say goodbye at dawn.
The nurse leaves.
The theme of love sounds.
Romeo enters, Juliet goes to meet him. They sit down on the bed.
Scene 11 "Farewell"
Romeo
Morning, morning,
I hear birdsong.
They sang the dawn.
The hour of separation has come.
Juliet
Hold me tighter
That's the nightingale, son of the night
He doesn’t want to separate us from you,
He is the guardian of my love.
Nurse (offstage)
Juliet. Juliet, stop sleeping.
The whole house is already awake
And no matter how heaven turns into hell for you!
Romeo
Let's melt the night with one last kiss,
Mix with tears and drop by drop
I will drink the healing elixir,
To ease the separation. I'm leaving.
Romeo leaves. Juliet falls on the bed in tears.
Scene 12 "Time to Get Married"
Lady Capulet (offstage)
Are you up, daughter?
Juliet
Who is talking to me?
Are you, mother? What do you need so early?
Lady Capulet enters.
Lady Capulet
I hasten to tell you my joy.
Juliet
At times like these, joy comes in handy.
So, what does this joy consist of?
Lady Capulet
Your father is full of care for you.
He chose a day to entertain you
For the holiday. We never dreamed of
Such an unexpected celebration.
Juliet
Well, good morning. When is the holiday?
Lady Capulet (takes Juliet's hand)
Thursday, my dear. On Thursday
Beautiful Count Paris, your betrothed,
In the morning he invites us to Peter's Church,
To marry you.
Juliet (pulls out his hand, angrily)
I swear by Peter's Church and Peter,
I don't fit in with Paris!
What a rush! Driven down the aisle
When the groom doesn't even show his eyes yet.
Thank you Notify father
It's too early for me to get married.
Lady Capulet
Here he comes. Tell him yourself.
Let's see how he takes these speeches.
Enter Count Capulet and the Nurse.
Count Capulet
Well how are you? You already told me
Is this our command, wife?
Count Capulet
She said, but she doesn't want to listen,
Refuses. Thanks.
Capulet
What? What? I can not hear. Repeat. Don't want to?
Thanks? She didn't understand
All this honor? It's not obvious to her
How many times is the groom more noble than us?
Isn't she proud of our find?
Not a sound! Everything is known in advance.
On Thursday be in church or in front of
Never get caught by me again!
Ooh, vile! (swings at Juliet)
Nurse (stands between Count Capulet and Juliet)
God forbid, sir!
You can’t talk about your daughter like that.
Count Capulet
Why, a teacher with a pointer?
This whole thing is driving me crazy. God!
Leaves with Lady Capulet.
Juliet
Why does fate forge such feats?
To defenseless creatures like me?
Well, what do you say, nanny? Really
No consolation?
Nurse
There is consolation.
Come to us and demand you.
That's why I would marry the count.
Juliet
Are you speaking from the heart?
Nurse
From the heart.
Juliet (quietly)
Amen!
Nurse
What?
Juliet
You reborn me.
Go downstairs and tell your mother:
I will bring Lorenzo repentance
In the sin of disobedience to the father.
Nurse
I'll go tell you. This is a commendable step!
The nurse leaves.
Juliet
And if the monk doesn't help me,
There is a means to die in my hands.
Juliet leaves.
The melody “The Death of Romeo” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet” sounds, Russian version
Lorenzo on stage. Juliet enters.
Scene 13 "Poison"
Juliet
I ask for help, Holy Father!
They want to send me down the aisle on Thursday
Repeatedly. But connect yourself with others
It's not possible for me! It's better to accept death!
Lorenzo
Juliet,
Listen and remember.
There's poison here. And after drinking a couple of drops,
He gives Juliet a bottle of poison.
You'll fall into such a deep sleep
That the body will become cold, like a corpse.
Everyone will know that Juliet is dead.
But you will wake up at night in your crypt.
I sent the letter to Romeo with a reliable person.
Lorenzo leaves. Juliet walks thoughtfully across the stage, clutching a bottle of poison in her crayfish. Sits down on the bed.
The theme of love sounds.
Scene 14 "The Death of Juliet"
Juliet
Thoughts fly after the beloved,
I'm leaving to go back.
I drink the saving poison
To return back at dawn,
What awaits me on the other side of sleep?
A cup of poison, will it save?
Darling, come
Wake me up.
Juliet drinks the poison and falls asleep.
The theme of love sounds louder.
Lady Capulet enters.
Lady Capulet
Juliet! Juliet! Juliet, stop sleeping. Get up.
He shakes Juliet by the shoulders and lifts her up. Juliet is sleeping.
Today is the wedding.
He notices a bottle of poison and recoils from Juliet. Screams.
Good God. For help! She is dead.
Lady Capulet runs off stage.
The Nurse and Lady Capulet enter and cover Juliet with a cloth.
Benvolio comes out.
Benvolio
Death dances, narrowing the circle,
The one my friend loved died
There is no Juliet, Death has taken revenge,
The Nurse and Lady Capulet leave. Juliet is sleeping.
Bring this news to Romeo
I have to. Sad honor...
Romeo enters.
Romeo
Benvolio! With news from Verona?
No letters from my monk?
How's your wife? What's at home? How's Juliet?
Tell me quickly. It's just about her.
And everything is fine if she doesn't feel bad.
Benvolio
Juliet is the point. Juliet is fine.
Her remains are in the Capulet crypt.
Her soul is among the angels of heaven.
I saw Juliet's burial
And he left immediately to notify you.
Have mercy on me for this news,
I didn’t dare hide it from you.
Romeo
What you said? I send you a challenge, stars!..
Let's get the horses and head out.
Benvolio leaves.
The melody “The Death of Juliet” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet”, Russian version, plays.
Romeo approaches Juliet. He has a dagger in his belt and a bottle of poison in his hands.
Scene 15 "The Death of Romeo"
Romeo
Even death is powerless before her,
The decay of the grave did not touch the lips.
Only the sad gloom of the crypt
The prayer is answered with silence.
The war with the Montagues is over -
The two of us are in the arms of sleep forever.
I drink to you, love!(Drinks poison.)
I'm dying with my last kiss.(Dies. Falls to the floor next to Juliet's bed.)
Juliet (wakes up, gets up)
Romeo, get up. I'm already awake. Romeo, it's time for us, get up!
(Shakes Romeo by the shoulders, tries to wake him up.)
Romeo, what's wrong with you? Answer, answer...
He gets up from his knees and walks to the edge of the stage.
What sin have I committed?
Why, Lord, answer me?
Who loved him most of all
Has death become your rival?
Better in a crypt than with people.
He kneels down in front of Romeo's body and takes his dagger.
I'm dying of love.
On blood-stained ground,
Where you are not, there is no place for me.
He stabs a dagger into his chest and dies.
The melody “Feud” from the musical “Romeo and Juliet”, Russian version, plays.
Girls in black suits come out, holding fabric in their hands (like a curtain). The girls slowly walk across the stage. Romeo and Juliet leave with them, hidden by the cloth.
Scene 16 "In the Crypt"
The Dance of Death (tango) is performed to musicfrom the movie "Step Up 3" Jazmine Sullivan "Bust Your Windows"
The dance group leaves. The Prince, the Count of Montague and the Count of Capulet come out.
Prince
Where are you, irreconcilable enemies,
And your dispute, Capulets and Montagues?
What a lesson for the haters
That Heaven is killing you with love!
And I lost two relatives
For indulging you. Everyone got it.
Count Capulet
Montague, let me shake your hand.
Only with this will you compensate me for my widow's share
Juliet.
Count of Montague
I'll give more for it.
I will erect a monument to her in gold.
While our city is called Verona,
The best of statues will stand in it
Juliet, who remained faithful faithfully.
Count Capulet
And next to it is a golden statue
Let us honor Romeo at his true worth.
Prince
Your approach is shrouded in darkness.
The sun does not appear through the thick clouds.
Let's go discuss our losses together
And we will accuse or acquit you.
The Count of Montague and the Count of Capulet leave.

2. Darkening. Only the circle at the edge of the stage where Romeo stands is illuminated.
Romeo: Where will I go if my heart is here? Juliet, you are like daylight! Stand by the window, kill the moon with your proximity!
The illuminated circle on the left side of the stage turns on, where Juliet stands in thought. Romeo sees her, she does not see him. There are two illuminated spots on the stage. Quiet, dark, only the sounds of crickets and cicadas. Night.
Romeo: Oh honey! Oh my life! O joy! She stands there not knowing who she is. Stands alone, palm pressed to cheek. What was she thinking about on the sly?
Juliet(to herself, not seeing anyone) : Oh woe is me! Romeo, how sorry I am that you are Romeo! Abandon your father and change your name. And if not, make me your wife, so that I won’t be a Capulet anymore.
Romeo(quiet): Should I listen further or answer?
Juliet: Only this name wishes me harm. You could be yourself without being a Montague. What is Montague? Is this the name of the face and shoulders, legs, chest and arms? What does the name mean? A rose smells like a rose, whether you call it a rose or not. Romeo by any name would be the height of perfection that he is. Call me something else, Romeo, and then take all of me in return!
Romeo(loud): Oh, deal! Now I'm your chosen one!
Juliet(looking around) : Who is it that penetrates my cherished dreams in the dark?
Romeo: I don't dare call myself by name. Thanks to you, I hate it.
Juliet(joyfully) : We haven’t said a dozen words, but this voice is already familiar to me! Aren't you Romeo? Are you a Montague?
Romeo : Neither this nor that: names are forbidden!
Juliet : How did you get here? The fence is high and impregnable. You will inevitably die here when my family finds you.
Romeo : Love brought me here! Walls don't stop her. And because - what do I need from your family?
Juliet : They will see you and kill you!
Romeo : Your glance, Juliet, will be my chain mail from them. This night will cover me with a cloak. If only you were warm with me. And if not, I prefer death from their blows than a long century without your tenderness.
Juliet : Who showed you the way here?
Romeo : Love found her!
Juliet : My face ( touches palms to cheeks) darkness saves me, otherwise I would have burned with shame that you knew so much about me. It's too late, there's no point in pretending. Do you love me? I know, I believe that you will say yes. But don't rush. Don't lie, Romeo! This is not a joke. I may seem gullible! Of course, I am so much in love that I must seem stupid to you. But I am more honest than many touchy-feely people who play prudes.
Romeo : I swear, my friend, whenever this heart...
Juliet : Don't, don't swear, I believe. You are very dear to me, but I’m scared how quickly we came to an agreement. Everything is too hasty and rash. Go now!
Romeo : But how can I leave you so soon? I took an oath. Now swear it too!
Juliet : I was the first to swear and I regret that it’s in the past and not in the future. My love is enormous, and my kindness is like the vastness of the sea. ( The voice of the nurse behind the scenes: “Juliet!”) My name is. Goodbye… ( leaves the illuminated circle)
Romeo(dreaming) : Holy night! What if this is all a dream? The happiness is so immeasurable, it’s all so fabulous and wonderful!
Juliet(quickly runs into the illuminated circle) : Two more words. If you, Romeo, have decided to marry me in earnest, let me know tomorrow when and where the wedding will be. My man will come to you in the morning to find out your decision on this matter. I will follow you everywhere. And if you have deception in your mind, then ... (behind the scenes, the voice of the Nurse: “Darling!”) leave me and don't go anymore. A hundred thousand times goodbye! ( blows a kiss and leaves)
Romeo: A hundred thousand times I will sigh with longing far from dear eyes. ( is about to leave)
