The videotaping or other video or audio recording of this production is strictly prohibited. 3 Synopsis Act I—At the Garter Inn, Dr. Caius accuses Sir John Falstaff of brutalizing his servants and complains that Falstaff’s retainers, Bardolfo and Pistola, have robbed him. Falstaff laughs off these accusations and announces to his men that he intends to seduce the wives of Ford and Page. He commands Bardolfo and Pistola to carry letters to the women but they refuse, claiming the action is dishonorable. Passing the notes to a page, Falstaff lectures them on the subject of honor. In Ford’s garden, with Nannetta and Dame Quickly listening on, Alice Ford and Meg Page read identical letters from Falstaff and determine to teach him a lesson. INTERmissiON Act II—Back at the Garter, Dame Quickly arrives with an answer to Falstaff’s letters. He has won both women’s hearts, but only Alice can see him when her husband is away. Meanwhile, Ford (disguised as “Fontana”) introduces himself as a wealthy man who is in love with Ford’s wife. He offers Falstaff gold to help him seduce Alice. Sir John agrees to help him and leaves for Ford’s house. Falstaff arrives and begins wooing Alice; suddenly Ford storms in looking for the intruder and Falstaff hides in a laundry basket. While Ford searches the house, the laundry basket is dragged to the window and dumped out the window into the river. INTERmissiON Act III—Outside the Garter, Falstaff is licking his wounds when Dame Quickly arrives with news of another rendezvous with Alice, this time in Windsor Forest at midnight. However, this time he must go disguised as the “Black Huntsman.” Their conversation is overheard by the other wives, Ford, Caius and Fenton – who plan the evening’s fun. Later that night, with Sir John standing by Herne’s Oak, Nannetta invokes the forest spirits (the local children) to prick and pinch Sir John as they stage the masque of the Fairy Queen, in the course of which Nannetta and Fenton are married. Ford is accepting when he realizes his daughter has thwarted his wishes through trickery, and Sir John leads the company in a chorus.

Further, if we view them within the context of 18th-century Spain, a deeply Catholic country in which social/sexual propriety was much more intense than in present-day America, what then? While we can accept that some women may not be very perceptive and NONotes onTES Don Giovanni from the Production team that some women simply have a high libido, condemning all women to these states is just not believable or interesting.
