Julia Marlowee with E.H Sothern in Anthony & Cleopatra (1909)

In the fall of 1904, Julia Marlowe (Juliet) and E.H. Sothern (Romeo) co-starred in the play, marking the first time of many that they shared the stage in a Shakespeare work. Marlowe and Sothern were one of the most beloved acting duos tackling Shakespeare in the 20th century. They were beloved for their joint performances in Much Ado About Nothing, Hamlet, and several other plays, in addition to Romeo and Juliet. They worked together constantly starting in 1904, and in 1911, Sothern divorced his wife to marry Marlowe. The two were at the helm of four total Broadway revivals of Romeo and Juliet, starting when they were 38 and 44.
