I had a feeling you would say this...
What I meant is they are acting in the story. Romeo and Juliet wasn't acting in the story. They were actors for the story, not in the story.
If Romeo and Juliet was just acting in the story, ie. they were actually actors and so the them committing suicide wasn't real in the story. There's a difference between acting for the story and acting in the story.
To cement the fact that it was just an act, there were people commenting on the story. Would you just sit on your chair and comment on the story if it wasn't an act?
Other than that, there's also other situations that cements the fact that it was just an act:
1)If you were about to hug your sweetheart and I just stand between the two of you, would you say "Oh, my love but I cannot hug you because a wall is between us." No, you would just kick my ass and chuck me down the garbage chute.
2)If you saw a cute girl in a fun fair with red stains on her mouth and a veil with the same stain on the floor, would the first thing that comes into your mind be "Oh my God! This cute girl had eaten my girlfriend!"?
So in a nutshell, the story is about a group of female actor acting a tragic show and the show was ridiculed(in a funny way) by the audience. How can that be tragic?
