Romeo and Juliet
Day 1 - Sunday: Act I, Scene 1-Act II, Scene 2
As the play begins, a long-standing feud between the Montague and Capulet families
continues to disrupt the peace of Verona, a city in northern Italy. A brawl between the
servants of the feuding households prompts the Prince to threaten both sides to keep
the peace on pain of death.
Benvolio advises his lovesick friend Romeo, (son of Montague), to abandon his
unrequited love for Rosaline and seek another.
That night, Capulet holds a masked ball to encourage a courtship between his
daughter, Juliet, and Paris, a relative of the Prince. Concealing their identities behind
masks, Romeo and Benvolio go to the ball, where Romeo and Juliet fall in love at first
sight, but at the end of the evening discover their identities as members of the opposed
families. On his way home from the feast, Romeo climbs into Capulet's orchard to
glimpse Juliet again. Juliet appears at her balcony, and the couple exchange vows of
love, agreeing to marry the next day.
Day 2
Monday: Act II, Scene 3-Act III, Scene 4
Romeo asks Friar Laurence to perform the marriage ceremony. Though initially
reluctant, he finally agrees, hoping to reconcile the families, and marries Romeo and
Juliet that afternoon.
Meanwhile, Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, sends Romeo a challenge to a duel. Romeo refuses
to fight when Tybalt confronts him because they're now related. However, Mercutio,
Romeo's quick-tempered friend, intervenes and accepts the challenge. Romeo tries to
part the other two as they fight, but Mercutio is fatally wounded under Romeo's arm.
To avenge Mercutio's death, Romeo kills Tybalt and then flees.
The Prince announces Romeo's banishment for Tybalt's murder. Romeo, in hiding at
the Friar's cell, becomes hysterical at the news of his sentence and tries to kill himself,
but the Friar promises to make Romeo's marriage to Juliet public and gain the Prince's
pardon. Romeo and Juliet celebrate their wedding night before he leaves at dawn for
Mantua.
