Flute is also a character in Midsummer Night's Dream which I had the honour of playing (ugh). Because Flute was the young dude of the performing group in Midsummer and his voice had not yet been developed, he had to take the role of Thisbe (who is Pyramus' love), a chick. Yes, I had to wear a dress and stuff boobs into my shirt.

The good thing about taking the role of Flute (if you ever have the chance to do so) is that you may be over-dramatic, prance around the stage and not need to memorize many lines.
