Who Is to Blame for the Deaths of Romeo and Juliet?

In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the tragic deaths of the two young lovers leave readers wondering: Who is truly to blame? Was it fate? Bad timing? Or were certain people responsible for the choices that led to their downfall?

For this writing prompt, you will write 3 paragraphs explaining who you believe is most responsible for Romeo and Juliet’s deaths. You must choose ONE person or group and support your answer with evidence from the play.

Here are some options to consider:

  • Friar Laurence, whose risky plans may have caused more harm than good.

  • The Nurse, who went back and forth in her advice to Juliet.

  • Romeo and Juliet themselves, for being impulsive and secretive.

  • The feud between the Montagues and Capulets, which created a dangerous environment.

  • Lord and Lady Capulet, for forcing Juliet into marriage and ignoring her feelings.

  • Tybalt, whose aggression escalated the violence and led to Romeo’s banishment.
