YouTube - Mercutio & Tybalt's death - Romeo & Juliet (1996) - 1 views

I found this clip of Mercutio's death scene from the 1996 Romeo and Juliet. I think it would be useful for the students to see what they are reading be preformed in a way they could relate to more. This clip can also be used in a discussion of whether this play is a tragedy or a comedy.
