The critically acclaimed world premiere production comes to the UK direct from the National Arts Center's sell-out season in Ottawa, Canada as part of its international tour. Winner of The Guardian Newspaper Book Award, Robert Nye's novel is a portrait of Shakespeare's great comic character. Adapted for the stage as a one-man show, it paints a historical and humorous portrait of Great Britain seen through the eyes of the vigorous and unrepentant 81-year-old Falstaff who holds court one last-time and enjoys a bawdy evening at the Boars Head Tavern. "The National Arts Center of Canada is one of the world's great theatre companies."
