Abstract
- The article discusses a 2013 revival of the Elizabethan-era practice of men playing female roles in theater, focusing on productions of playwright William Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" and "Richard III" at the Belasco Theatre in New York City where actors Mark Rylance, Samuel Barnett, and Paul Chahidi all are cast as females. Other topics mentioned include the preparation needed such as waxing body hair, acting techniques, and costume designer Jenny Tiramani on creating female costumes for men.
