Falstaffs Wedding (1760 and 1766) is an intriguing play by William Kenrick, serving as a sequel to the beloved works of Shakespeare, specifically Henry IV, Part 2 and The Merry Wives of Windsor. The play carries forward familiar characters from Shakespeares narratives but introduces a gripping twist. The first version, published in 1760, presents a serious plot centered around a conspiracy to kill Henry V of England, which did not resonate well with audiences in its 1766 presentation. In response to the lukewarm reception, Kenrick crafted a completely revised version later that year, transforming the serious elements into a delightful farce that amplifies the comedic aspects. Join us for an engaging exploration of this unique theatrical journey. - Summary by ToddHW
