Shakespeare fans can celebrate the Bard’s birthday with a Brooklyn accent at Brave New World Repertory Theatre’s acclaimed production of “The Merry Wives of Windsor (Terrace)” which, with a few minor adjustments, sets the comedy of the working classes in Brooklyn’s Windsor Terrace in the Big Hair 1980s. The production re-imagines Falstaff as a befuddled mob boss and Mistress Ford and Mistress Page as the-real-housewives-of-Brooklyn—with an eye for mischief and an ear for the traditional Brooklyn accent of the time. Minor script changes turn the River Thames into the Gowanus Canal.
