All the roles on the Shakespearean stage were played by ?

Males

Explanation: All roles in the Shakespearean plays were played by males because at the time of Shakespeare women were expected to stay at home , make food, take care of the kids, etc

Men

Explanation:

Even the women characters in Shakespeare's plays were played by men. This was because women weren't allowed to be on stage before 1660 as acting wasn't deemed a credible profession. Shakespeare was born in 1564 and died in 1616 which is way before 1660.

Hope this helps :)
