Answer:

Girls and women were not allowed to work in the theater during Elizabethan times.

Women were not allowed to be on the stage because it was considered "dangerous." Men played male characters as well as female characters! "The Greeks believed that allowing women to perform publicly would be too dangerous and that having men portray them neutralized the danger."
