Answer:
Romeo and Juliet’s play is believed to be the sixth most popular play of Shakespeare that has left its mark on millions of hearts. It is for certain that Romeo and Juliet’s play had already been performed by 1597 after the first quarto was published. However, there are no surviving records of Romeo and Juliet play performances before 1660.
It is assumed that Romeo and Juliet most likely had been acted by the Lord Chamberlain’s Men at the Theatre for the first time and soon after at the Curtain as well. But from the records, it can be said for certain that in 1662 Romeo and Juliet was staged by the Duke’s Company.
The plot of Romeo and Juliet has been modified many times over the years. First, William Davenant revived and revised the plot then David Garrick modified several scenes, removing several then considered indecent scenes so that it was considered as the 18th-century version of Romeo and Juliet. Georg Benda used a happy ending and omitted many actions of the play. In this way, the play kept on being modified.
