Well that depends on the time you are basing your question on. recently, i have been set a homework to fulfill the question of "what happened during the 17th and 18th century plays?". i have found many things but they all relate back to women. the thing is that women were used as housewives and the men were the only people in theatre. this was until recently when women were used to play female roles except witched and old women. this was carried on and progressed since then. :)
Thanks xx
(please remember that i am only 12 yrs old) :)

When could women perform in theatre?
It isn't clear when women began being allowed to perform in other cultures. It is in dispute whether they were allowed to act in Greek Theater. But, in India they were allowed to perform starting early in the post Christ era (CE). However, women were not allowed on the British stage until the mid 1600s. This was a result of King Charles II's experiences while in exile in other European countries. So, the presumption is women were acting earlier in these other countries, perhaps France.
