The main difference between the plays is that Pyramus and Thisbe’s parents hated each other, but there was no feud

Step-by-step explanation:

Pyramus and Thisbe lived next to each other, which is different from that of Romeo Juliet. Their parents were feuding, but it does not seem to be one of those town-splitting feuds where everyone is on one side or the other. Their parents just didn’t like each other and didn’t want their offspring marrying. In Romeo and Juliet, however, the families just live in the same town and the feud is tearing the town apart.

In the play of Pyramus and Thisbe, Pyramus had stabbed himself with the sword. But in the play of Romeo Juliet, Romeo had drank poison which made the situations similar in both the plays. So there were some similarities and some differences in the two plays.
