What is the form and style of the play romeo and juliet

Like all of Shakespeare's tragedies, Romeo and Juliet is written mostly in blank verse. Mercutio and Romeo mostly use verse, but they often use prose when they are exchanging jokes. Prose can also mark reckless speech, and Mercutio sometimes uses prose when he is being especially provocative.

Shakespeare’s writing style in Romeo and Juliet is passionate, poetic and epic. We can see this from the very beginning of the play – the Prologue. The Prologue serves as an antithesis by predicting and telling the audience what is going to happen in the play, following the structure of a typical Greek tragedy.

Moreover, his language, from the start, seems grandiose. Notice his use of phrases such as “ancient grudge,” “civil blood,” and “star-crossed lovers,” that continues throughout the play, and also parallels the “epic” nature of the plot.
