By William Shakespeare. Presented by Ilyria. Falstaff is skint. He decides his only option is to seduce the wives of two wealthy merchants. But the women are best friends, and of course they spill their hearts to each other every day... Scandalised not just that Falstaff wrote to them but that he sent them identical love-letters, they vow to play tricks on him when he comes calling. Finally, with the help of their husbands and friends, the merry wives lure him to a haunted forest and teach him a lesson he won't forget! Suitable for all. Running time: 2 hours 20 minutes, including 20 minute interval.
