Mercutio is in the House of Escalus, however he is very good friends with Benvolio and Romeo who are both in the house of Capulet.
Mercutio is a character in William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet." He is Romeo's friend and known for his wit and humor. Mercutio plays a crucial role in the play as his death serves as a catalyst for the tragic events that unfold.
Mercutio contributes comic relief. His humor and asides poke fun at people in the play - Romeo, Benvolio, etc - and gives the audience a chance to relax within the intense emotions of the play. Mercutio also tells us whether the play ends up as a tragedy or a comedy, and his death is the turning point of the play. By killing off Mercutio, the ultimate source of comic relief, Shakespeare is telling us that the ending will eventually be tragic.
Mercutio is hot headed. In the storyline, the hotter it was outside, the more angry he would get. His character was named Mercutio because mercury in thermometers would rise when the temperature was hotter.
