Latin plays were written for audiences whose gender perspectives and expectations were shaped by life in Rome, and the crowds watching the plays included both female citizens and female slaves. Relationships between men and women, ideas of masculinity and femininity, the stock characters of dowered wife and of prostituteall of these are frequently staged in Roman tragedies and comedies. This is the first book to confront directly the role of women in Roman Republican plays of all genres, as well as to examine the role of gender in the influence of this tradition on later dramatists from Shakespeare to Sondheim.

It offers new theoretical insights for performance and theater studies and presents an impressive spectrum of topics that will guide any scholar and student of Roman theater and anyone interested in the literary representations and lives of women in antiquity."--Andromache Karanika, University of California, Irvine "An outstanding collection of essays, illuminating how female slaves and citizens were centre stage in Roman Republican drama, and it will serve as an invaluable resource for students and teachers of Roman drama."--The Classical Review "An indispensable resource for students of Roman drama and also important for those in theater and drama and women's studies.
