===Lady Capulet===
'''Lady Capulet''', or Angelica, plays a larger role than Lady Montague, appearing in several scenes. In act one, scene three, she refuses to talk to her daughter about marriage, as she feels uncomfortable about it. When Tybalt is killed in act three, she expresses extreme grief and expresses strong desires for revenge on Romeo, the killer. A few scholars have seen this as stemming from a romantic relationship with Tybalt. In act four, she becomes very angry with Juliet for refusing to marry [[Count Paris]]. By the final act, she is nearly overcome by the tragic events of the play.<ref name = Jay>Halio, Jay. ''Romeo and Juliet''. Westport: Greenwood Press, 1998. pg. 1 ISBN 0-313-30089-5</ref>
