In Spring 2022, SOT will perform The Merry Wives of Windsor for ~140 institutions, including ~120 middle and high schools. This fully staged & costumed production is pared to fit into a one-hour class period making it accessible to more schools while leaving themes & character arcs intact. No abridging language is added; the script consists solely of Shakespeare?s language. All performances include actor Q&A; some may include an add-on Playshop. Schools receive a curriculum in advance of the show.
