Burro'd Theatre
61 Park St L4N 1H7 Barrie, ON, Canada

Our Merry Wives crew had our first read-through this past weekend. That's right - even a pandemic won't stop the progress of this Merry band! We're starting slowly with virtual rehearsals for now, and will get back into the backyard together as soon as it is safe to do so. Rest assured, Burro'd always finds a way! ;)

Just a good general health tip from your friendly neighbourhood Shakespeare nerds.

First Instagram-legit, and now full-sized-banner-legit too! That's right kids, we're making moves! We've upgraded from 8.5x11 sheets of paper to this super awesome banner - coming soon to a backyard near you (if you live near us, and count this summer as 'soon' ). Psst - didn't know we're now on Instagram too? Pop over and give us a follow at http://instagram.com/burrodtheatre

The Merry Wives of Windsor August-September 2020 ... Unfamiliar with the play? Here is the premise: Sir John Falstaff, one of Shakespeare's celebrated clown characters, has found himself in financial difficulties. He decides to woo the wives of two of Windsor’s leading merchants, Mr. Page and Mr. Ford, to get money out of them. The two merry wives decide to get revenge on Falstaff for his obvious con, and great hilarity ensues. Filled with fantastic comedy, and brimming with heart, The Merry Wives of Windsor is the perfect farce of the summer! Poster design by Iain Moggach
