At play practice, I watch the other girls dress up as goddesses and Trojan women. They wear gold scarves wound tight around their necks and foreheads. They all wear flowers in their hair and flat pink ballet slippers. I wear a white sheet taken from my bed. It is tied around the middle with plain white rope. I also wear white sneakers. I don’t get to wear a gold scarf or flowers. Mr. Dodd wrote this play himself and is very picky about details. Tommy Aldridge, my partner in the horse, was sent home because his sheet had Ninja Turtles on it. "They did not have Ninja Turtles in ancient Greece," Mr. Dodd said.

Answer and explanation:

Mr. Dodd, writer of the play, is correct in emphasizing that no clothes of Ninja Turtles were worn in ancient times, although sending someone home for a mistake as simple as that seems to be a bit extreme.

When a historical period is artistically represented, it is always sought to bring to reality all that is pertinent to that period, to the smallest detail. Whether from customs, beliefs, ways of acting in certain situations and, obviously, the outfits that were used at that time. All these details must be properly taken care of and respected so that the play is, at the end, a success.
