Shakespeare
Festival 2008: Romeo and Juliet, All's Well That Ends Well and The Merry
Wives of Windsor
Romeo
and Juliet tell of Shakespeare's “star-cross'd lovers” who defy their
entire worlds to be together, in All's Well That End's Well Helena who
cunningly sets out to win the heart of Bertram in this enchanting Shakespearean
fairy tale, in which true love goes hand in hand with the tenacious spirit
of an indomitable heroine, and Sir John Falstaff steps out of the world
of court life to take up residence in the country town of Windsor. There
he attempts to use his own celebrity to his advantage by seducing two
happily married wives in The Merry Wives of Windsor.
