[quote=Cuco]I imagine Sato doesn't know anything about it, but Shakespeare's plays were done with male actors playing female roles, since, you know, women weren't allowed to act. It's also something Shakespeare loved to poke fun at, since a few of his plays involved women pretending to be men (which of course meant it was a man pretending to be a woman pretending to be a man).

Did [i]not[/i] know that. Interesting. I still don't imagine male students being 100% okay with being cast as females, though.
