Ideas for written coursework


1) group of 2
    How is true love portrayed?
    How are Romeo and Juliet portrayed as alike?

Use scenes between Romeo and Friar Lawrence and the Nurse and Juliet 
Also the monologues from the balcony scene
Explore them as they are portrayed by the same two actors
Act 2 Balcony scene, Act 3 scene 2, Act 3 scene 3,

2) group of 2
    Explore differences between Romeo and Rosaline and Romeo and Juliet
    Comment on true love

Romeo- difference in love
Juliet- comment on true love and how it is portrayed
(Played by same person as Juliet) Rosaline- what is love to her? Why is her relationship with Romeo at a distance?
Balcony scene, Romeo talking to Benevolio about Rosaline (Act 1), 

How can the relationship of Romeo and Rosaline be displayed? Do they ever have dialogue together?

3) What is the relationship of Friar Lawrence to Romeo? To Juliet?
  What advice does he give to them

Friar Lawrence- explore how his advice differs
Romeo and Juliet (same person) how does his advice differ to each character?
                                                    How is it similar?

Use scenes in Friar Lawrence's cell with Romeo and Juliet
-marriage
-Romeo asks to be married
-Juliet confesses
-Romeo and banishment 
-Find another scene with Juliet

More scenes with Romeo= represents something?
Romeo goes to him for important advice
