Good evening, Green Devil Families!

* Please mark your calendars and join us for this year’s fall production of The Merry Wives of Windsor by William Shakespeare. The lesser-known comedy of Shakespeare spreads laughter will teaching a lesson of virtue, honesty, forgiveness and acceptance.  The story surrounds an aging knight who schemes to swindle others while compromising the virtue of others. As always Shakespeare delivers a cast of stock characters, slapstick and age old tale of rebellion and love.
