Women were not permitted to act in plays publicly until 1660, although there are stories of private performances before that. When the ban on actresses was lifted, one of the first actresses to appear on stage was Margaret Hughes, who played Desdemona on December 8, 1660, although some evidence suggests that it may have been Anne Marshall (later Mrs. Anne Quin) who played that role.
