For, instead of the snaky curls and the robes or the armor that are supposed to €0 with the role, the little actor wore a talled coat, silk knickerbockers and stockings, buckled pumps and a powdered white wig tied in a queue. Yet the eighteenth century audience that attended the performance did not laugh.
