Hi,
In order to write a good essay on Romeo
and Juliet in the exam, you are going to need to have a pretty in-depth
knowledge of the play as a whole – this means you will need to be able to quote
key lines from memory and be able to refer to specific acts and scenes.
We
will focus on important quotes later on in the course, but, for now, I’m afraid
I’m going to have to ask you to memorise what happens in each act and scene in
preparation for a test on Friday. You can use the ‘Act Summaries’ booklet to help
you; you don’t need to memorise it all word-for-word, but you will need to be
able to give a very brief overview of what happens in each scene in your own
words. An online version of the booklet can be found here:

Good luck!
