Although it is correct to see yin as feminine and yang as masculine, everything in the world is really a mixture of the two, which means that female beings may actually be mostly yang and male beings may actually be mostly yin.

The reason Paradigm's people disappear and reappear is because they are souls that have been allowed to participate on a physical plain (metaphoric stage) again (Roger seeing those ghostly figures in ACT 4, including his mother, in the underground may be a reference to the spiritual aspect).
Having said that, we should all try to bear in mind that it is an art to bring religious symbolism into any entertainment work to qualify the “righteousness” of the hero, but to read too much into it serves more to cloud the issue than to clarify it.
That's why Angel as Director is told by Roger in the final scene of ACT 26, to stop denying her own existance and let the people keep their memories/they're vulnerable without them--something like this.
