Act 3 Scene 5 of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
Act 3, Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet is one of the key scenes of
Shakespeare's play. Consider why this scene is so important and show
how a production of it could be directed to create its full dramatic
impact.
Act 3, Scene 5 is one of the most significant scenes in the play. It
is Romeo and Juliet's last night together and Shakespeare has already
shown us how risky it is for them to be together because of what has
happened before the scene begins. The audience knows that Romeo should
be out of Verona but is not, and that Lord Capulet wants Juliet to
marry the County Paris on the Thursday of the same week. As we can
deduce the whole play is kept in quite a short time-space. As the
scene begins the tone is sorrowful because Romeo and Juliet both know
they might never see each other again.
In Acts 1 and 2, Shakespeare shows Juliet to be the centre of the
events because he demonstrates how she is a young girl who has not
experienced love until she meets Romeo, the son of her enemy. The
playwright shows Juliet to be willing to accept the possibility of
marriage to Paris, "I look to like, if looking liking move," but when
she meets Romeo she falls in love and Paris' love does not occur to
her. We know that Juliet's mother would like her to marry Paris and
Shakespeare reveals to us that Lady Capulet was married young. This
means that she might be a little anxious as to whether Juliet should
be married young as well, or she would just accept it as appropriate
for her daughter.
At the beginning of the scene, Shakespeare shows the audience Romeo

During Act 3, thehs of major characters, Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, and
Mercutio, a friend of both families. We know that Romeo kills Tybalt
out of anger because Tybalt kills Mercutio. This creates tension
between both families, Lady Capulet wants Romeo dead and Juliet knows
this, which is why she has to be careful when Romeo comes to see her.
It is the Nurse that tells Juliet about Tybalt's murder but still
convinces Juliet to stay on Romeo's 'side', which is why it is a
surprise to Juliet when the Nurse suddenly chooses to tell Juliet to
forget about Romeo. Act 3, Scene 3 is when Shakespeare shows us that
Romeo does not know who to turn to for help and so seeks Friar
Laurence's advice, however by the end of this act it is Juliet who
does not know who to turn to and so she too turns to Friar Laurence
for help.

Act One of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare The play Romeo and Juliet is set in "fair Verona" in Italy. Shakespeare based his play on a poem by Brooke and brought it to the theatres in 1595. Although the play is set in Italy many things mentioned could be found in Elizabethan England, for example the Capulet's party. This suggests to me that Shakespeare had little knowledge of Italian life and culture.
Act 1 scene 5 is very important in the play because it is when Romeo

Act 3 Scene 5 of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet There are several strong cases for Act 3 scene 5 being the pivotal, most important and significant scene in the play. To begin with, it is the last time that Romeo and Juliet are together, alive and well, after this scene Romeo goes to Manchua, and returns only to be near Juliet to die. Until this scene the audience will be convinced that Juliet has a very strong relationship with Nurse, they are obviously a lot closer than Juliet and her mother are, and Juliet relies on Nurse for advice and support. During Art three scene five, the audience's perception of Nurse changes, and Juliet no longer looks to her for support.
Act 3 scene 1 is one of the most important parts in the play; there
Directing Act 1 Scene 5 of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. In order to present Act 1 Scene 5 on stage I will divide this scene. into seven sections and discuss the setting of the stage, costume of. the characters, the movement of the actors on stage and the overall.
This is before Romeo becomes broken-hearted by Rosaline, and is infatuated with Juliet. During the play itself, Act 3 Scene 3 is mostly typical of Romeo's behaviour throughout. Although for some parts Romeo conducts himself in a more mature manner, he mostly acts exactly what he is - a love struck teenager.
In my opinion Act 1 Scene 1 is the most important scene of the play
