Eunuchus stars Sophie Klein, Erin Moodie, Mark Damen, and Kenneth Molloy. Extras? You bet: Seth Jeppesen, Amy Cohen, Tarik Wareh, Dan Smith Jr., and Chris Bungard, plus the voice of T. H. M. Gellar-Goad, in the Latin version.

This is the only scene from Terence performed during the Institute. All three versions were performed in beautiful Gerrard Hall on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. These versions are really different—all the way from ancient Rome to the modern sitcom. Note that these performers all really traded off roles and parts—nobody plays the same role twice. And they did it all in a single morning!
