The Merry Wives of Windsor Cove Review
UC Irvine’s New Swan Shakespeare Festival has adapted “The Merry Wives of Windsor” into a 1950s Southern California beach musical featuring surf culture and a pop score.

The production emphasizes comedy and community, with performances by UC Irvine students and a focus on their energetic, often exaggerated portrayals.
