The two masks used to depict the tragedy and comedy theater have names? Sorry, Marrianne, but masks are not covered as socks and Buskin, the provisions mentioned in sections costume worn by classical actors. muse names are the right answer to the names of the masks
Melpomene is the muse of tragedy, Thalia is the muse of comedy. Some people have described the masks as "Socks and Buskin"
They came from ancient Greece and were created to show the emotions of the characters in the play.
I call mine Martin & Lewis, let people understand themselves which is which.
