Breakdown

GYMNASIA
Female, 20s. One of Lycus’s courtesans, with whom Pseudolus falls in love. Gymnasia (Greek for ''Athletic'') is a giant stage on which a thousand dramas can be played. Perhaps a body builder. STRONG DANCER who sings well. Must be 5’10” or above.

PANACEA
Female, 20s. Another of Lycus’s courtesans. Panacea (Greek for ''Cure All'') has a face that holds a thousand promises, and a body that stands behind each promise. Any vocal range. STRONG DANCER who sings well.

THE GEMINAE
MALE or FEMALE, 20s. Twin courtesans in the house of Lycus. The Geminae (Latin for ''Twins'') are, according to Lycus: A matched pair. Either one a divinely assembled being, together an infinite number of mathematical possibilities. STRONG DANCERS who sing well.
