The Balcony Scene Isn't Working, and the Stakes Are Not High Enough.

Romeo and Juliet is about two apprentices at the theatre who fall in love. The balcony scene is when they really get to meet and get to know each other. Romeo sticks around the property of the capulets hoping to get another glimpse of juliet, or maybe work up the courage to say something to her. And as heis waiting, looking around in this really, really, you know, dangerous area for him to beat, she appears on her balcony.
