This is the intial "meeting" act for Romeo and Juliet.
through out the first III scenes; the beginings of a fight breaks out in the town square between the Capulets and the Montegues, and Lord and Lady Montegue are worried about they're son Romeo, as he has been fairly glum lately. Benvolio, Romeo's best friend, discovers that Romeo's fowl mood is due to the fact that he is in love with Rosaline(a capulet) and she does not return his interest. Benvolio manages to convince Romeo to attend a Capulet Ball that is taking place that night, where he first sets eyes upon Juliet.
The last II scences of the first Act, are the turning point for Romeo. He is now filled with happiness and love instead of sadness and despair. He instantly falls in love with Juliet, and longs to gain her love and trust. They dance and carry on, until it is time to leave. We are left with them pondering their feelings and the longing to see eachother again.
