Mercutio was a character in William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet.

In BardCorp's version of the play from the early days of the City of the Saved, he featured in the Act VI wedding scene between the title characters Romeo and Juliet. Francis Bacon claimed to have been the actual writer of Mercutio's "famously bawdy" best man's speech. (PROSE: The Smallest Spark)
