JDT LAB: THE TRAGEDIE OF KING JOHN FALSTAFF BY MICHAEL C. O’DAY
Defeated by the forces of Henry IV, the fearsome Welsh sorcerer seeks his revenge by magically shunting England into a terrifying alternate timeline. In this parallel-universe version of Shakespeare’s Henriad, Prince Hal is reduced to a mere footnote, and it’s Sir John Falstaff – fat, drunken, boastful, cowardly, irrepressible Falstaff – who becomes king of England. Can the Lord of Misrule overcome his innumerable vices to lead his nation, and put things back to rights? And if he can’t – or won’t – then is there anybody who can?
