Falstaff Unleashed: Mike Stoneham Brings Shakespeare’s Most Raucous Rogue to Life in a Riotous One-Man UK Tour
He’s boastful, boozy, larger than life - and now he’s hitting the road.
Distinguished actor Mike Stoneham storms the stage in Falstaff, a bold, hilarious one-man play celebrating one of Shakespeare’s most beloved and outrageous characters, adapted from the acclaimed novel by Robert Nye. Currently touring across the UK, this fast-paced production reimagines the legendary knight in a whirlwind of wit, mischief, and unapologetic excess.
Drawing inspiration from Shakespeare’s appearances of Sir John Falstaff in Henry IV and The Merry Wives of Windsor, Stoneham delivers a tour-de-force performance that captures the character’s unmatched charisma, shameless appetites, and surprising charm. Equal parts comedy and character study, Falstaff invites audiences to revel in the indulgent world of a man who lives for pleasure and laughs in the face of consequence.
With razor-sharp humour, physical comedy, and a twinkle of mischief, Stoneham embodies Falstaff in all his “fat-witted” glory - proving that this centuries-old character still knows how to steal the show.
Audiences are already raising a glass to the production:
“Fat, flatulent, fabulous. It was an absolute riot and we loved it!”
Whether you’re a Shakespeare aficionado or simply in search of a night of unfiltered entertainment, Falstaff promises a theatrical experience that is as bold and boisterous as the man himself.
Raise a cup, loosen your belt, and prepare for a night of glorious misrule. Falstaff is in town.
