Epilogue

So what do you think of my parody?
Juliet and Paris dated for many years to come and eventually got married after Juliet graduated from university with a degree in English literature. Cat, her best friend went on to become a martial arts instructor and thoroughly enjoyed her work. Juliet’s father succeeded in surpassing Mr. Montague and became the owner of a very successful business that made costumes for movie companies.
Shakespeare returned to his own time with Romeo and wrote the epic tragedy ‘Romeo and Juliet.’ Romeo performed in the play as himself and often moved the audience to tears. He became a favourite of Queen Elizabeth I and lived a long, happy life in medieval London.

Thank you!  It's a much better read when you've read the play.

This is awesome! I love the 'mysterious stranger'! Just a thought I do have for him though, is that I think you could have gave him a bit more of a conclusion. Sure we can guess who he is, but I reckon it could've been extended a bit. Otherwise it was brillaint!

Reading this reminded me of when I had to take Shakespeare's The Taming Of The Shrew and rewrite it in the modern world a few months ago. I should put it up. It was so funny; in my taming of the shrew, no one ended up in a high speed chase. (Drat!) :D

I meant your thing was funny. The only way mine was funny was if you actually read the play. I've never read Romeo and Juliet, but this was great.

Thank you!  It helps that 'Romeo and Juliet' is such a cultural phenomenon that everyone knows the basic plot.

I've only read the first chapter so far, but it's terrific. I only needed to read the first paragraph to be hooked. I liked the references to your other story "A Letter to my Sister's Future Boyfriend". Or was it the other way around? I can't tell which you wrote first.

I just have one criticism for this Chapter. I found it unrealistic that the police would come just because Juliet claimed there was a boy following her around. They wouldn't take a call like that very seriously, and I d... (more »)

Obviously, the cop coming and initiating a car chase was meant to be over the top, as most parodies are.  I know it wouldn't happen like that.

 

As for my Old English, it's not real Old English.  It's just what I've picked up from movies and such.

Ah, okay. As long as you know it's unrealistic.

And, yeah. Reading or listening to something really is the best way to learn it (besides teaching it).

I forgot to mention that this was my first piece ever on Teen Ink.  A Letter to my Sister's Future Boyfriend was part of my much later work.
