How many times Romeo and Juliet kiss?

Answer 1

The word "love" appears 205 times in The Bible according to my scripture search function! This was a fun word to review the context of its use in the Bible. You might want to find a scripture search tool and do this one yourself. These tools are available free online.

Answer 2

According to my calculations the word love appears 150 times in the text Romeo and Juliet.
Some other words very similar to love appear as follows:

loved (4)
lover (4)
lovers (8)
beloved (2)
lovely (2)
loves (2)
lovest (2)

Answer 3

When the text of Romeo and Juliet was first published in 1597, the title page said that it had been "oft (with great applause) played publicly.", and it is difficult to know how many times it may have been revived up to the Civil War. After the Restoration in the late 17th century, all the way to 1842, only two theatres in England were allowed to put on Shakespeare, which reduced the number of productions there. No such limitation applied to the American stage.

Since 1842 the field has been wide open. Romeo and Juliet is not only a favourite of the professional stage, it has always been popular with amateurs. Since it is often studied in schools, school productions are common also. In fact, the number of productions in the last 175 years must be so vast that it would be impossible to even estimate. It is certain that, somewhere in the world, this play is being performed right now.

The answer must be in the hundreds of thousands.

Answer 4

947 times, probably, when they are offstage between Act 3 Scene 3 and Act 3 Scene 5. There is some offstage smooching between acts 2 and 3 as well. But we don't see those kisses. What we do see is two kisses definitely in Act 1 Scene 5 and another one in Act 3 Scene 5 when Romeo says "One kiss and I'll descend", and again in Act 5 Scene 5 Romeo kisses Juliet when he thinks she's dead ("Thus with a kiss I die") and Juliet returns the favour ("Thy lips are warm!"). The script does not suggest that they kiss at all during the balcony scene (Act 2 Scene 2) although it can be played that way and often is.

So, there you are. Romeo and Juliet actually appear together in only five scenes with a minimum of five kisses: The Party Scene (Act 1 Scene 5, 2 kisses), The Balcony Scene (Act 2 Scene 2, no kisses), The Wedding (Act 2, Scene 6, no kisses), The Morning After the Wedding Night (Act 3 Scene 5, 1 kiss), and the Death Scene (Act 5 Scene 3, 2 kisses)

Answer 5

Macbeth is not a story. It's a play. You cannot perform a story unless it is changed into a play first. In the same way, you cannot tell a play, unless it is changed into a story.

In Shakespeare's play Macbeth, the word "love" is used nineteen times.

Answer 6

Not once. She does not even appear on stage in most productions.

Answer 7

80 times ...

Answer 8

Not once.
