Assuming you are talking about Act 1, the scenes are set as follows:
Scene 1: A Public Place
Scene 2: A Street
Scene 3: A Room in Capulet's House
Scene 4: A Street
Scene 5: Capulet's House.
Act 1 Scene 4 Line 14-15
she was probably fourteen or thirteen
The nurse in the play Romeo and Juliet has a motherly relationship with Juliet despite being the family's servant. According to the nurse, Juliet had yet to reach her 14th birthday while she secretly made wedding plans to marry Romeo.
She was only 15 years old when she made Romeo & Juliet. And Leonard Whiting, her co-star was only 17 years old then. According to Franco Ziffrelli, he had to get Olivia Hussey's permission to appear nude. Edited: She was born in 1951 and the movie was released in 1968. This would make Olivia Hussey 17 years of age, not 15.
It doesn't say anything about Romeo's cousin, but many people mistakenly think Benvolio is. Benvolio is just his friend. Benvolio is the Prince's cousin. Sorry, that's wrong. Benvolio is Romeo's cousin. In Act 1 Scene 1 Benvolio says to Romeo's father "My noble uncle, do you know the cause?" (somewhere around line 150) and later in the scene he greets Romeo "Good morrow, cousin." (about 15 lines later).

Umm, where did you get that idea? We have no idea how long it took Shakespeare to write his play. Or how long it took Arthur Brooke to write his poem. Perhaps you are thinking of some other Romeo and Juliet, in which case you should specify.

Romeo's AgeIn short, Shakespeare never says. So everything else is speculation. Many will assume that he is also 13 (Juliet's age), but there's no specific reason to believe that. He's likely older, at least by a few years. Whether that makes him 16 or 20 is subject to much debate. In the original source material for Romeo and Juliet, by the way, Juliet was 18. Shakespeare changed it. So quotes about Romeo being too young yet to have a beard might even suggest that he was younger than her! And the next time somebody tries to explain an answer with "Well, back then...." stop them right there and ask "Back when? Back when Shakespeare wrote it, or back when the story is supposed to take place?" Because there's several hundred years difference.
No Romeo and Juliet were not lovers when they were children. The story of Romeo and Juliet is a classic tale of two star-crossed lovers who come from two feuding families the Montagues and the Capulets. Although their families were enemies the young lovers were drawn to each other and eventually found themselves in a forbidden love affair. The play begins when Romeo a Montague and Juliet a Capulet meet at a masquerade ball. They instantly fall in love and make a secret marriage pact but they do not consummate their marriage until later in the play. This indicates that they did not have any kind of relationship prior to the masquerade ball. In fact they had never even met before that night. Furthermore the play is set in the Renaissance era when children were not allowed to have romantic relationships. Juliet is only thirteen when the play begins and Romeo is a bit older but not old enough to be in a serious relationship. They are both too young to be in love and as a result were not lovers when they were children. It is only through the power of fate and the dramatic events of the play that the two young lovers are able to realize their forbidden love. Even though Romeo and Juliet were not lovers when they were children their love for each other eventually leads them to make the ultimate sacrifice.
A 15 year old and a 13 year old shouldn't even be dating! That's the exact age romeo and Juliet were.
Dont tell them, itd be a bit like Romeo and Juliet, haha
