“Exeunt” is a stage direction used in plays to indicate that characters leave the stage. It is derived from Latin, meaning “they leave.” This direction is typically used at the end of a scene to signal the exit of characters and the end of their presence on stage. “Exeunt” is often followed by the names of the characters leaving, such as “Exeunt Romeo and Juliet.” This stage direction helps to guide actors and stage managers in coordinating movements and transitions between scenes, ensuring a smooth flow of the performance.
