Well, depending on the year Doc planted the doomed rose bush, it could very well have been eaten by one of the horses in the first production of Much Ado. But if that seems far fetched, maybe eaten by an over actor in one of the reunion plays? Just adding to the mystery!

I remember there being one there my first summer. But by 2007, it was gone. I don't know if it was the weather or an overly zealous groundskeeper. I have attached a picture of the lonely sign from 2007. We did The Merchant of Venice that summer, and Katy Rawson was playing Portia. Her Dad came to see every performance. He didn’t “plan” to see every performance, but would always turn up eventually, with a sheepish look on his face, having arrived late with no reservation. One time, he walked up with a plant in his arms. He bought the rose to honor his daughter Katy, and to thank S@W for giving his family such a beautiful summer. He asked if we could plant it behind the sign, and Sarah did. She's a great gardener, and kept it watered and fed for years, even after she was no longer the program coordinator! It has become so hearty that we now have to prune it back each summer.

Laurel, that is a great idea to check in with that store on Burnet. Thank you for offering. Leigh, I'm so glad you found a place that makes custom chimneys, a great fallback if it comes to that. Heather, that shape does look right...I will order one of those Dietz Globes to see if it works. Terry, I'm excited you are working on a cabaret and will take to online sleuthing after. Kathy, Idalia, and Emily thank you for joining the hunt. I think it would be really cool if we find not just a suitable replacement, but two of the actual Artolier globes. Mike, I think I'd like to find replacement globes, if possible, first before looking to replace the lanterns. There's no rush. But you bring up an interesting point, though, about replacement lanterns. My understanding is that the Theatre Barn is not held to the same historical standards as other buildings on the property. I don't quite understand why, but I am interested in learning more and will share once I do. I just love the look of these lanterns and they do work...they just need some TLC and some missing parts. Apparently, Winedale was rented out for a wedding at some point, and that is when the globes on the back two lanterns were broken. So rest easy that it was not Sh@W folks that did the breaking. Thank you all for joining in! On the list soon is updating the Welcome sign. That was given to Doc from the class of 1994. Doc and the class built the berm and set the posts and Susan Todd's sign shop did the work on the sign. Susan, I'll be looking to you for advice on how best to refurbish the sign. Does anyone know about the rose bush that grows behind the sign? That came later. I'm wondering if there's a story connected to that rose bush. More soon!

Clayton & Steve, what a nice piece of memorabilia! And what a great story to go with it!🥰 Sent from my iPhone On Mar 15, 2024, at 4:42 PM, Clayton Stromberger < cstromberger(a)austin.utexas.edu&gt; wrote:  As a footnote in the book of Winedale lore related to “Knight of the Burning Pestle”: In the fall of 1984 a group of Winedalers from the early ‘80s classes – along with some of their friends from the worlds of Austin music and theater – came together to work on a production of the play, with evening sessions spent playing on the little stage in Calhoun 100. I seem to recall that there was no director; it was to be ensemble-led. The cast list, courtesy of the Steve Price archives: [image: image001.jpg] I have fond memories of James’s sweet and winning Rafe… Mark and Elise were as funny as you would imagine… I remember Steve’s exuberant Merrythought… Sadly the warning at the bottom of the sheet – “Opening night is sooner than you think” – did not prove true. Opening night never came; the company dissolved a few weeks into rehearsals after a few key players left for various reasons and no one had the extra time that semester to plug the gaps and rebuild momentum. I remember a somber final meeting in Calhoun Hall, with all of us sitting around on benches and on the floor outside Doc’s basement office, as the group decided to let the idea go. It still gives many of us a pang that we never had a chance to see this Winedale-inspired “Pestle” in its full potential glory… What a cast list!

Amazing story about the KOBP that wasn't. Love that cast list! Thanks for that, Clayton. Here's a memory I have from the 1996 KOBP at Winedale: Jon Watson was originally going to be out there in 1996 but had to opt out because of back surgery and Michael Mergen replaced him as Merrythought. Jon gave us a setting or two for some of the songs in the play. A spirited one that starts, "Sing, now, before the hour of dying" is one of my all-time favs. But there were many more little songs, and I remember Doc suggested we add even more songs to the play. One afternoon, the class divided into groups, and we all went off to devise tunes for the songs. We said you could use an existing tune or make one up. I had a little ditty in my head from seeing the Mozart opera *Abduction from the Seraglio*. So our little group set words to it. In the last week of the summer, Brett Youens made a beautiful gift for Jeff Liaw: a transcription of all the music from the summer. After transcribing that piece, Brett came running out of the parlor looking for me, saying, "Madge, did you write this?" He went on and on about the amazing structure of the tune and how it sounded simple but was really genius. I enjoyed letting him think I was the composer for a bit and then revealed Mozart, not me, had written it. Here's the tune if you'd like to listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMdA_BEFhKk. Sadly, I haven't found any pics yet, Casey, but I will continue the search!

What a wonderful group of people engaged in what could have been a wonderful production. I knew most everyone on that list at the time and would have dearly loved to have seen them all playing together in that world. Such a long time ago that was … long enough that all those phone numbers listed by the cast members' names were for landlines.

I checked in with a non-Winedale-alum who's listed as a cast member, and neither of us remembers an actual performance of Burning Pestle, although we both vaguely remember some kind of big meetup in Calhoun 200 (or was it 100? it was the big lecture hall, at any rate) with a lot of the faces listed on the cast sheet. (I have clearer memories of Doc giving the Spring 1979 class the play early on, and of us--including me and another person on this cast list--not knowing what to do with it, despite which several of us Spring Class members went on to join the 1979 summer class.) I think it was brainstormed but didn't come together. At any rate I'd have loved playing Humphrey.
