The Merry Wives of ‘Norwich’

The Norwich Players relaunched the Maddermarket Theatre with an open-air production of Shakespeare's boisterous comedy The Merry Wives of Windsor, reimagined as The Merry Wives of Norwich, staged in the theatre courtyard. Seven performances took place over 27th August 2021 - 30th August 2021.

The Maddermarket Theatre is re-launched and The Norwich Players' long association with Shakespeare is continued with the play that opened their 1921 season, the year the theatre was founded.
