Tonight we focused on the A-plot. The duping of Falstaff by Ford (Brooke) and the merry wives. This is a great groups of experienced actors with a mix of exposure to playing Shakespeare. They took to it very well. I had abandoned the concept of reading through scenes first at the previous rehearsal and we jumped right in. We got a fair amount accomplished. In fact we were just one Falstaff/Quickly scene and one Falstaff/Ford scene away from doing all of their blocking.
