Shakespeare's plays were all pre-cast, since they were intended to be played by the actors in his company. Therefore it is fair to say that a part like Hamlet ws actually written for Richard Burbage. Likewise, the parts Shakespeare wrote for fools when these parts were played by Will Kempe (like Launce in Two Gentlemen of Verona) are notably different from those written for Kempe's replacement Robert Armin (like the fool in King Lear). Although we do not have a lot of information about the boys who played the women in the company, we can conclude that the one who played Rosalind ("I am uncommon tall") probably also played Helena ("Thou painted maypole") and a shorter boy played Celia and Hermia.
