It is rumored among literary historians that Shakespeare wrote the Merry Wives of Windsor at the request of Queen Elizabeth I. She so enjoyed the character of John Falstaff from the Henry IV Part 1 and 2 history plays that she wished to see him in a comedy and in love! Shakespeare obliged on at least half of her wish –
Be a part of this bawdy, hilarious Shakespearean comedy and find out if he followed through on the other half…
