The Merry Wives of Windsor by William Shakespeare
Presented by
Shakespeare & Company
“Well, if my wind were long enough, I would repent.”Falstaff, the man who loves to play tricks on others, becomes the butt of ridicule when he attempts to con the two merry wives, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page, out of some cash. The pair manage to outwit Falstaff and, along the way, teach the jealous Mr. Ford a lesson. The Merry Wives of Windsoris truly a positive statement about love, marriage, trust and family, with a feminist twist. “Wives may be merry and yet honest too.” (Tickets available at the ticket booth prior to performance/No reservation necessary). Please bring a blanket or lawn chair and a picnic supper to the performance.
