The Merry Wives of Windsor - Live at Shakespeare's Globe
Synopsis
Double-meanings, disguises and dirty laundry abound as Sir John Falstaff sets about improving his financial situation by wooing Mistress Page and Mistress Ford. But the âMerry Wivesâ quickly cotton on to his tricks and decide to have a bit of fun of their own at Falstaffâs expense⌠The Merry Wives of Windsor is the only comedy that Shakespeare set in his native land. Drawing influences from British 1930s fashion, music and dance, the production will celebrate women, the power and beauty of nature, and with its witty mix of verbal and physical humour, it rejoices in a tradition that reaches right down to the contemporary English sitcom. The Windsor Locals appear courtesy of Soldiersâ Arts Academy, London Bubble and Clean Break.
