In the upper photo there are two brothers, one of whom is now a peer of the realm. The character on the extreme right is blind and of uncertain gender.In the lower photo the two 'women', one of whom gives her name to the play, are in fact lusty lads of 16 or 17.
I'm in both. Despite these anomalies, I'm as certain now of my gender as I was when these was taken, back in 19...I forget when exactly. If you identify me correctly I may magically come to life.
One of the most famous lines from this play, written in about 440BC, is:
The greatest of the many wonders on earth is Man
H'm.
