This Happy Breed is a play by Noël Coward.
 It was written in 1939 but, because of the outbreak of World War II, it was not staged until 1942, when it was performed on alternating nights with another Coward play, "Present Laughter".
 The two plays later alternated with Coward's "Blithe Spirit".

The Merry Wives of Windsor is a comedy by William Shakespeare first published in 1602, though believed to have been written in or before 1597.
 The Windsor of the play's title is a reference to the town of Windsor, also the location of Windsor Castle, in Berkshire, England, and though nominally set in the reign of Henry IV, the play makes no pretence to exist outside contemporary Elizabethan era English middle class life.
 It features the character Sir John Falstaff, the fat knight who had previously been featured in "Henry IV, Part 1" and "Part 2".
 It has been adapted for the opera on several occasions.
 The play is one of Shakespeare's lesser-regarded works among literary critics.
