William Shakespeare’s epic and delightful comedy is a rollicking tale of marriage, fidelity, trickery and love.
The puffed up and degenerate Sir John
Falstaff, a Knight of the Garter, is seized with the outrageous idea that to seduce two of
Windsor’s wealthy merry wives will prove his virility and give him access to their money, but with female cunning and a devilish plot involving their husbands, Falstaff is repeatedly tricked by the women.
Two detectives are hunting the man with the winning smile who gives lonely, middle-aged women the happiest six months of their lives.
In this haunting new musical, composer Daniel Loveday explores alienation and loneliness in modern society where, with little social cohesion, people can easily fall under the radar.
Directed by Sandra Loveday
Performed by Emma Daw and Joe McNulty
Ticket Prices: Adult £10, seniors & students £8, child £6.
