Romeo and Juliet was popular during Shakespeare's time, but over the centuries it has become nothing short of omnipresent. It is arguably the most-filmed play of all time, and has been adapted 4 times to date - first by George Cukor in 1936, then by Franco Zeffirelli in 1968, Baz Luhrmann in 1996, and most recently, by Carlo Carlei in 2013.
John Madden's Academy-Award winning film Shakespeare in Love is a fictional account of Shakespeare's life while writing the play.
It was the basis for Prokofiev's famous ballet, and has inspired numerous operas, pop and jazz songs, books, games, and musicals.
