About
Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival presents this comedy of comeuppance at the BMO Mainstage in Vancouver, where two clever wives turn the tables on the lecherous Falstaff through an ingenious scheme of escalating pranks. Running from June 9 through September 19, 2026, this adaptation keeps the sharp wit and physical humor of Shakespeare's original while bringing fresh energy to the battle of wits between the scheming women and their would-be seducer. The production offers a lighter alternative to the festival's other offerings, making it an ideal choice for audiences looking for laughs and clever wordplay.
