Canadian author Crad Kilodney created the “Shakespeare For White Trash” series to make Shakespeare understandable and enjoyable to the many millions of people living now who have little or no knowledge of Shakespeare, and to prove to them that the stories contained in Shakespeare's plays are superb. The plots and characters are unchanged, but everything else has been radically restyled. Read Crad's versions and you will become a Shakespeare fan.  Enjoy!Kilodney originally posted his versions on Wordpress.com from 2010 to shortly before his death in 2014. It was the first time that all 38 of Shakespeare’s plays had been rewritten by one author and published in one place. They are re-packaged here to increase the likelyhood of people, like you, finding them.Mr. Kilodney hoped acting companies would be encouraged to stage these plays more often.Gist of the story:Sir John Falstaff, an old, disreputable knight, decides to con Mistresses Ford andPage in order to get some of their husbands’ money. He pretends to court them. But two of hisfollowers, Pistol and Nym, rat him out to the husbands. Page doesn’t take it seriously, but Ford, who isextremely jealous, disguises himself as Master Brook and bribes Falstaff to try to seduce Mistress Fordto test her honesty. Meanwhile, three suitors are competing for the hand of Anne Page — DoctorCaius, Slender, and Fenton. Mistress Quickly pretends to be helping all three of them. The wivespretend to love Falstaff, but their aim is to prank him and humiliate him. The climax comes in WindsorPark at midnight, when Falstaff, disguised as a ghost, goes to meet the wives and is accosted andtormented by a gang of “fairies” led by Anne Page, disguised as the Queen of the Fairies. Amid thecommotion, Slender steals in and grabs a fairy he mistakes for Anne, and Doctor Caius also takes thewrong fairy by mistake. Both run off to marry their intended brides, who turn out to be boys. Fentonelopes with the real Anne, who has tricked both her parents and married the suitor she really loves.Falstaff is well and truly humiliated by the wives, who have also proven to their husbands that they arehonest. The Pages are reconciled to Anne’s marriage with Fenton. The repentant Falstaff is forgiven.(Audiences loved Sir John Falstaff so much in the two parts of Henry IV that Shakespeare reprised himfor The Merry Wives of Windsor. He’s a shameless schemer and con artist, and we love seeing him getinto hilarious situations. Although Falstaff and his followers are borrowed from Henry IV, this playtakes place in Shakespeare’s own time and is a comic look at middle-class life in an English town. It isone of Shakespeare’s most popular comedies.)
