The Jeweler's Shop (subtitled A Meditation on the Sacrament of Matrimony, Passing on Occasion into a Drama) (Polish: Przed sklepem jubilera) is a three-act play, written in 1960 by Karol Wojtyła (later Pope John Paul II), that looks at three couples as their lives become intertwined and mingled with one another.
The play looks at humanity's ideas and expectations of romantic love and marriage. It is a truthful[citation needed] and animated look at the way people are when in love and their motivations for entering into couplehood.
