Best Answer

She may or may not be crying. It depends how the director wants to direct it. However, for much of the Act, Juliet is controlling herself completely: in her conversations with Paris, her parents and the nurse. The only time she might break down is in Friar Lawrence's cell ("I long to die if what thou speak'st speak not of remedy.") or during her soliloquy in Scene 3 ("O, look, methinks I see my cousin's ghost"). Claire Danes in the Baz Luhrman film cries very effectively in the former spot.

Why? She is in desperate trouble. Her husband has been taken away. She cannot rely on her parents or her nurse. She is being forced into bigamy. She does not have the skills to survive in the outside world. Then when Friar Lawrence proposes a solution, it is insanely risky and horrifying. She might cry for any of those reasons.
