The Merry Wives of Windsor follows the overconfident Sir John Falstaff as he attempts to woo two wealthy married women simultaneously, only to be outwitted by the clever Mistress Ford and Mistress Page in a series of increasingly hilarious pranks. This production is part of STNJ's Rogue Shakespeare series, performed without a director and with only one week of rehearsal, harkening back to original Shakespearean practices. Jeffrey M. Bender leads the troupe as Sir John Falstaff, with a cast including Erin Partin as Alice Ford, Ka-Ling Cheung as Margaret Page, David Shih as George Page, Michael Stewart Allen as Frank Ford, and Hassiem Muhammad as Fenton, among others. The production is stage managed by Brielle Morris and Mikki Monfalcone.
