When an out-of-pocket schemer arrives among the lawns and herbaceous boarders of Windsor, he sets about seducing two well-to-do married women. It's the perfect hustle.

The Merry Wives of Windsor is an uproarious tale of mischief and double-dealing where women get the last laugh. It is a great example of a Shakespearean comedy and explores the themes of:
- Deceit
- Marriage
- Revenge and jealousy
