In Act 3 of a play, the climax or crisis typically represents the turning point where the protagonist faces their greatest challenge or conflict. This pivotal moment often leads to heightened tension and reveals the characters' true motivations and desires. The decisions made during this act can alter the course of the narrative, setting the stage for the resolution in the following acts. It is a critical juncture that determines the outcome of the story’s central conflict.
It depends on how you're using the word climax. It can be a noun eg. the climax of the film/play.
For some people the word "climax" has a technical sense when discussing a play. This might cause them to identify the climax with act 3 of any Shakespearean play. In a non-technical sense, the climax of the play comes when Othello smothers Desdemona. He had a chance up to that point but none after.

the highest point of excitement in a play or climax is the point in a drama in which conflicts are resolved
Most people would say that the murder scene is the climax.
The events of a dramatic or narrative plot following the climax.
Isn't this a rather devious way of asking what the climax of the play is? In the Freytag Pyramid sense, the climax falls in Act 3 Scene 1 with the deaths of Mercutio and Tybalt. The death of Tybalt is, in particular, the event which sends the plot spiralling into tragedy. And the important event immediately following it is the trial of Romeo in absentia for the crime of street brawling causing death. Of course, another view of what a climax is all about (the resolution of the plot conflicts) would make the climax the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, and the event which follows is the reconciliation of their families.
