Description

In a plot worthy of a day-time reality show, All’s Well that Ends Well tells the story of a low-born ward named Helena who cures an ailing king and asks for the hand of a young nobleman who will do just about anything to avoid marrying her. Of course, she finds a way to snare the cad with some clever dece -- a plot development that leads Will and James to discuss who the real villain is in this play and whether anyone really learns anything in the end. // Credits // Intro Music: Jon Sayles, "The Witches' Dance" (composed by anonymous); Outro Music: Jon Sayles, “Saltarello” (composed by anonymous); Illustrative Excerpts: “The Maury Povich Show”; “The Jerry Springer Show”; “All’s Well that Ends Well,” dir.
