Whilst I admit that some of the gags where lost on me as a non Swahili speaker, the brilliant thing about the Bitter Pill & Theatre Company Kenya's Merry Wives is the fact that it felt so true to the jolly roguish spirit of the fat knight John Falstaff (seen in this production wearing a loud orange shirt, yellow tie and purple trousers).
James's Quick Facts
Best thing about the Play
Falstaff running away from Ford in slow motion to the theme of 'Chariots of Fire'.
Worst thing about the Play
The British weather!
Other things worthy of note.
Falstaff broke through the fourth wall at the end and 'picked up a chick' from the audience! Awesome!
