“Jack” takes us into battles, bedrooms and bars in Clayton Jevne’s one-actor adaptation of Robert Nye’s Guardian Prize-winning biographical novel. Nye’s anti-hero is a comical yet poignant combination of Shakespeare’s self-absorbed buffoon and the actual historic figure of Sir John Fastolf (Shakespeare’s inspiration) whose extensive writings chronicled the latter part of the Hundred Years War. Jevne’s/Nye’s Falstaff paints a colourful portrait of medieval England as well as providing a first-hand account of some of the Hundred Years War’s significant battles – including Falstaff’s encounter with Joan of Arc.
