Day 1: All of Act 1, starting with the brawl in the morning and Capulet's feast at night.

Day 2: Starting at about midnight in Act 2 Scene 1, up to 9 am by Act 2 Scene 4. By Act 3 Scene 1 it is about noon, and Romeo and Juliet are married. Mercutio and Tybalt die in the afternoon and Romeo and Juliet consummate their marriage that night. Just before they do, however, Capulet and Paris have a conversation in Act 3 Scene 3 where Capulet says "What day is this?" and Paris responds "Monday" Day 2 is therefore Monday and the wedding is set for Thursday, which is Day 5.

Day 3: Starts in Act 3 Scene 4 at about 6 am when Juliet and Romeo wake up. In Act 4 Scene 2 Capulet changes the wedding to the next morning (i.e. Wednesday). The Tuesday ends with Juliet taking the potion in Act 4 Scene 4.

Day 4: Wednesday starts with Act 4 Scene 5. Juliet is discovered to be apparently dead and will be buried late that morning.

Day 5: Balthasar brings the news to Romeo in Verona and Romeo prepares to return to Verona. He arrives at night, about 42 hours after Juliet took the potion on Tuesday night. The night passes very quickly.

Day 6: A glooming peace this morning with it brings. It is early in the morning, and the play is at an end. It started Sunday morning and ends the following Friday morning, five days later.
