Sir John Falstaff, a visitor to the town of Windsor and needing money, sends letters to Mistresses Page and Ford in the hope of wooing them and tapping into their husbands’ fortunes. The women discover his intention and, enlisting Mistress Quickly as their messenger, set a trap. One of the merriest of Shakespeare comedies and peopled with riotous characters such as Parson Hugh Evans and the insane Doctor Caius, it’s a farce that’s not to be missed.
