To the best of my memory, Bob and Courtney (and Daryl as Rafe) started in the audience balcony, but when the grocer rushes the stage, and his "Coney" joined him, they forced the sign boy (played by Madge's nephew) to get them a stool so they could sit on the stage balcony.

So sayeth Merrythought.

Hi Casey,

Knight of the Burning Pestle was in 1996. And Shoemaker's Holiday was in 1989. I was Firk in Shoemaker's..."I'll firk you if you do!" was one my best lines. I was there for both. I think I can scare up some images.

Doc might remember differently, but as I recall we put the Citizen and his wife in the balcony audience. 

More soon!

Hi, friends!

Do we know if there are any photos from the Winedale Knight of the Burning Pestle that are shareable on here? What year was that? 1980s? KOBP and Shoemaker’s Holiday were the first non-Shakespeare plays out at Winedale once y’all started doing full plays, is that right? Or no?

I’m writing a chapter dedicated to KOBP for my book on citizenship with Arden/Bloomsbury press and I’ve already given a talk based on my work using pics from the ASC Blackfriars production. I’d love to incorporate/celebrate some images from Winedale as well in future presentations!

Doc, how did y’all stage the citizen and wife when they say they’ll sit down on stage? Did you use benches on stage?

Cheers, all!
