'The character Rosaline is barely a footnote in the world of Shakespeare,' writes Stephanie Zacharek (szacharek). 'And now she has a romantic comedy of her own'
plays the woman who was probably second fairest in all Verona. Her Rosaline is a smart and somewhat spiky young woman who longs to become a cartographer, though her father, Adrian Capulet , hopes to marry her off to a rich oldie. She recoils at the thought, not only because she wants control over her own destiny, but because she’s already secretly in love with Romeo , who has been visiting her on the sly. There’s a big masked ball coming up; she’s eager to dance the night away with him.
Naturally, Rosaline is none too pleased, and she begins scheming ways to pry Romeo away from her sweet—but not pushover-sweet—cousin Juliet . She enlists the help of her gay bestie Paris , persuading him to proffer himself as a husband to Juliet.
