He's usually played as a Franciscan but he could just as easily be a Dominican.
My best guess would have to be Franciscan because that was the order around at the time in the Catholic town of Verona
There are two friars that are mentioned in this Play.Friar Laurence: The friar who marries Romeo and Juliet and who helps the two through everything.Friar John: The friar who brings the message to Mantua from Juliet but is too late. (mantua is where romeo is hiding)
In a previous scene, Capulet and Paris agreed that Paris should marry Juliet on Thursday at St. Peter's Church. However, it is the groom's job to make the arrangements with the priest, which is what he was doing at Friar Lawrence's cell. Romeo was the one to make arrangements with Friar Lawrence about his wedding to Juliet, as you will remember.
There weren't friars in Elizabethan England because of the dissolution of the monasteries, friars were either made homeless or fled abroad. In other countries where they still had monasteries they would have worn plain robes or hair shirts depending on what order they belonged to.
there was a pluge in mantua at the time so he didnt wont to go in they would not have let him out if he did go in

Grey Friar is the name given by the laity to the Friars of the Franciscan order. The name derives from the original color of the habit and was used to distinguish the Grey Friars from the White Friars (Carmelites) and Black Friars (Dominicans aka Order of Preachers).

A friar is usually a person that is part of a religious order such as the Augustinians or Franciscans. A sentence using the word is "One of the best characters in the story Robin Hood is the monk, Friar Tuck."
Yes. A friar is a mendicant. They are different from monks in that they do not live a cloistered life. So whereas a monk lives most of their life cut off from the outside world in a monastery, a friar lives in the community and supports it. In simple terms, they are like monks that donate almost all of their time to community service in some form. A friar, like a monk, still takes the vows of celibacy, obedience and poverty. However, they do not live a cloistered life and usually do not take a vow of silence. I have never heard of it the term friar being used to describe anyone who wasn't Catholic.
He wasn't a Monk, he was a Friar. Friar Tuck was his name. A monk is a member of a monastic order. A friar is a member of a mendicant order. Monks live in a monastery. Friars live in a friary. Monks are usually cloistered. Friars are usually active.
Martin Luther in fact was a friar, not a monk. He joined the order of friars called the Augustinian Order.
Friar Laurence belongs to the Franciscan religious order.
A friar lives in a religious community called a friary or monastery, often associated with a specific religious order such as Franciscans or Dominicans. Friars typically live a communal life dedicated to prayer, service, and living the teachings of their religious order.
A friar is a member in the Catholic Christianity church. The friars are split up into four great orders. The Dominicans, Franciscans, Carmelites, and the Augustinians. The friars are told to live by obedience and strict discipline along with peace and abstinence.
A friar is a member of a religious order, typically in the Christian church, who takes vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. "Curates" are priests in charge of parishes in some branches of Christianity, particularly Anglicanism. So, "friar curates" could refer to friars who serve as curates, assisting in the ministry of a parish.
