Photo Flash: First Look at THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR, Opening Tonight at Orlando Shakespeare
William Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor runs tonight, February 4, through March 7, 2015 at Orlando Shakespeare Theater. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
Set in the fictional town of Windsor in late 1950''s America, The Merry Wives of Windsor centers on the pompous and rotund John Falstaff. Hard up for money, he conspires to woo the two wealthiest wives in town and pocket their riches-with disastrous and hilarious consequences.

Mangan; Anne Page - Danielle Reneè; Mistress Alice Ford - Jean Tafler; Master Frank Ford - Warren Kelley; Doctor Caius - Chris Mixon; Mistress Quickly - Allison DeCaro; John Rugby - Liz Mignacca; Sir Hugh Evans - Eric Hoffmann; Host of the Garter - Christopher Niess; Sir John Falstaff - John Ahlin; Robin - Luke Timmel; Bardolph/ Ford Servant - Anna Carol; Pistol - Michael Sheehy; Nym/Ford Servant - Ryan M. Skiles; Master Fenton/ Ford Servant - Christopher Joel Onken; Master Robert Shallow - Mark Ferrera; Master Abraham Slender - Rashad Guy; and Peter Simple - Chris Metz.
