STL Shakes Returns!

UPDATE 8/23/23

Due to an unforeseen injury in the St Louis Shakes cast, our Merry Wives of Windsor play this coming Saturday has transformed into an equally unforgettable experience. Join us at Hermann Farm starting at 6:30 PM for an enchanting evening with an open-air viewing of Marc Norman’s "Shakespeare in Love" starting at sundown beneath a canopy of twinkling stars. Snacks, beer, and wine will be available for purchase. Don’t forget to bring low back chairs, and cozy blankets for your comfort.

VIP Guests - Join us at 5:00 p.m. to mingle with the majestic Black Shire Horses of Hermann Farm. As a VIP guest, you’ll be serenaded by live music as you savor meticulously crafted libations from The Black Shire Distillery and indulge in delectable bites by the renowned Chef Bernie Lee of Akar in Clayton. Then, starting at sunset, settle in for an outdoor screening of "Shakespeare in Love" beneath a canopy of twinkling stars. To ensure your comfort, we have chairs available for you to soak in the ambiance of this historic treasure.  We firmly believe this transformed experience will forge cherished memories.

See you at the farm! 


Saint Louis Shakespeare Co is back at Hermann Farm August 26, 2023 preforming their jocund adaptation of Merry Wives of Windsor! STL Shakes productions have become a favorite, annual event at the farm. Each year our distillery team perfectly pairs playful cocktails with the themes of the play — creating a whimsical experience for VIP guests during their pre-production reception.

This year, we’re serving up two boozy libations for our VIPs in The Stone Barn which is adjacent to the grassy glen where the production will be held. The first of which is a refreshing sipper named “Anne Page” — created using Hermann Farm Distillery’s Sophie’s Gin, fresh-squeezed lemon, pineapple and hibiscus. If gin isn’t your style, we’ve also concocted a sturdy whiskey drink named “Falstaff’s Folly” made with Black Shire Distillery Bourbon, Aperol, orange, and champagne.

Sound yummy? Snag a VIP ticket before they sell out!
