Shakespeare at Windale

Pericles

Saturday
July 18, 2015

Event planned by Ken Carson and Connie Stried

Dust off your copy of The Complete Unabridged Works of Shakespeare and fire up the Bimmer! After a six year hiatus, it's time once again to visit Shakespeare at Winedale. UT's theater department will present Pericles at 2pm.
We will meet in San Marcos at the Wal Mart at 1015 TX-80. Driver's meeting will be at 8:30 am and we will depart at 8:45. There are several gas stations close by, so "full, full, empty" is easily accomplished.
You will pay for your tickets when signing in upon your arrival at Wal Mart. Lunch will be ordered from the menu and paid directly to the restaurant.

An easy morning drive through beautiful Texas back roads will take us to our lunch destination, Bistro 108, in LaGrange, Texas.

(more info)

We will arrive shortly after 11 am before their lunch rush. Bistro 108 specializes in "fine casual dining." We will order from their menu, which frequently changes.


After lunch, we will make our way to Winedale for Pericles. A brief synopsis of the play states:

"Facing pirates, bawds, assassins, shipwrecks, and goddesses, Pericles must sail across the entire Mediterranean in search of love and family. Adventure after adventure follows, no matter where his ship lands. But miracles are possible in this fairy tale full of twisting destinies and divine intervention."

Tickets are $10 each and only thirty will be available. RSVP early to secure your tickets.

The rural facility is in an open air barn with individual chairs and evaporative coolers blowing cool air on the audience and stage. It is very quaint and a wonderful venue for these productions. Students come from all over the U.S. and even the world to perform all summer.

If you have a two-way radio, bring it. They enhance the enjoyment of the drive!
