A clear, visually engaging Romeo and Juliet character map showing the key Montague, Capulet and neutral characters, alongside their relationships and roles.

This printable classroom resource is designed to help students quickly understand who each character is and how they connect to the wider plot. Characters are colour-coded by family or allegiance, with illustrated portraits and short relationship labels such as Romeo’s father, Juliet’s cousin and Romeo’s best friend.

You will receive two versions of the poster: one with a colour-coded background and one with a plain white background, so you can choose the version that best suits your classroom display or printing needs. There are no watermarks in the ones purchased.

The poster includes key characters such as Romeo, Juliet, Lord and Lady Montague, Lord and Lady Capulet, Benvolio, Mercutio, Tybalt, the Nurse, Friar Lawrence, Paris, Prince Escalus and the main servants.

Ideal for:

• KS3 and KS4 English
• Introducing Romeo and Juliet
• Classroom displays
• Character revision
• Supporting students who struggle to remember relationships
• Visual learners
• GCSE Shakespeare revision

The clear family split makes the Montague and Capulet conflict easy to identify at a glance, while the illustrated character designs help make Shakespeare’s large cast more memorable and accessible.
