Lord Knutsford
8년 전, 아프리카 밀림을 떠나 이제는 런던 도심에서 사랑하는 제인과 함께 문명 사회에 완벽하게 적응한 타잔. 하지만 탐욕에 휩싸인 인간들은 그를 다시 밀림으로 불러들이는데… 사랑하는 아내 제인과 밀림을 지키기 위해 타잔, 그가 이제 인간에게 맞선다!
Sir John Falstaff
The fat knight Sir John Falstaff imagines that Mistress Ford and Mistress Page are both taken with him and so, attracted as much by their husbands’ money as their personal charms, he decides to woo them both. But the women are up to the old lecher’s tricks and turn the tables on him with a series of humiliating assignations, midnight terrors and a very damp, extremely smelly laundry basket. Gutsy, colloquial and bustling with vivid characters, The Merry Wives of Windsor is a brilliantly constructed farce and the only comedy Shakespeare set in his native land. It is also the ancestor of English bourgeois comedy and gave birth to a tradition that reaches down to the modern TV sitcom. The production made merry with the relationship between the life of middle-class Elizabethan England and the late medieval period in which the play is set.
