Production notes: 
We do not know when this play was produced, though it is mentioned by Aristotle in his Poetics (14 = 1453b 29) so it must have been produced before the composition of that work. The date range here is based on the career of Astydamas the younger: his first victory in the Dionysia was in 372 BC and subsequent victories are recorded in the 340s.
