Emily: The recent production at the RSC, The Merry Wives of Windsor, has been getting less than complementary reviews. However, I saw it last night and I think it is probably one of the best performances I have ever seen. A star studded cast including Judi Dench and Simon Callow deliver faultless performances, and the music is fantastic. Some Skakespeare plays can prove slightly heavy going after an hour or so, but this was the first performance I could have happily sat through for several hours.
