Who wrote the play “Romeo and Juliet”?

  1. George Orwell

  2. Harper Lee

William Shakespeare wrote the play "Romeo and Juliet". George Orwell wrote famous works such as "1984" and "Animal Farm" and Harper Lee wrote "To Kill a Mockingbird". Mark Twain wrote "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". None of these authors wrote "Romeo and Juliet" as it was written by William Shakespeare.
