    What do you call people watching a play?

    • Attendance 

    • Audience 

    • Assemble

    • A Pride 

    Correct Answer
    A. Audience 
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Audience". In the context of a play, the term "audience" refers to the group of people who are watching the performance. They are the spectators who are present to observe and enjoy the play. "Attendance" is a more general term that refers to being present at an event, but it doesn't specifically imply watching a play. "Assemble" means to gather or come together, and "A Pride" is not a commonly used term to describe people watching a play.

Despite their deep love for each other, their relationship is plagued by misunderstandings, violence, and ultimately, their tragic deaths. The term "star-crossed" refers to the belief in astrology that the positions of the stars and planets at the time of a person's birth can determine their fate, suggesting that Romeo and Juliet's love was destined to end in tragedy.
