Description
Page 30: Dorinda and Hippolyto (played by a female actor) titillate and amuse the audience by their confusion as they discover sexual feeling, without knowing what it is, having been raised in isolation from society on the island.
Page 31: Similarly, Miranda is confused about her feelings for Ferdinand and questions why her father Prospero lied to her about men’s fearfulness, when he now says men are meant to guide women.
