Free Shakespeare in the park: The Merry Wives of Windsor
The Cromulent Shakespeare Company presents free performances of The Merry Wives of Windsor, Shakespeare’s silly farce filled with colorful characters, physical comedy, music and audience participation.
The Merry Wives of Windsor centers around courtship: three potential suitors vie for the affections of the lovely and eligible Anne Page while opportunist Sir John Falstaff attempts to woo two married women of Windsor. Hilarity ensues with disguises, mistaken identity and busybody matchmaking. “Think of it as an Elizabethan ‘Real Housewives of Windsor’,” says director Erin Caswell.
