One of William Shakespeare’s funniest comedies tops the bill in February’s Shakespeare in the Park Festival in Tallahassee. “The Merry Wives of Windsor” will include a well-known TV and online star in a leading role.<\/p>\n
That star is Charisma Carpenter. “Buffy and the Vampire Slayer” fans know her well, as she also went on to play in the spin-off “Angel” series. Since then, she’s been a prolific podcaster and social commentator. Southern Shakespeare’s Executive Director Bianca Montague says she’s a perfect fit for the role of the lusty and liberated “Mistress Ford.”<\/p>\n
“We’re very excited to have a high-energy comedy featuring two very strong, clever women in the lead who wreck some light hearted revenge on our rogue, our Falstaff.”<\/p>\n
