CONTENTS SOCIETY SUMMER IS IN FULL SWING, AND EXCITING TIMES ARE AHEAD FOR ANY and every St. Louisan. There is no shortage of things to do. A quick check of last weekend’s calendar brought a plethora of activities, such as the Lantern Festival at the Missouri Botanical Garden, Jungle Boogie at the Saint Louis Zoo, and Twilight Tuesday at Missouri History Museum—and that’s just in Forest Park. This week’s publication also comes with a bonus: our latest edition of Elegant Living, which gives you more of what you love about LN, including some of the season’s most memorable gatherings, weddings that are second to none, and dining discoveries that will keep you wanting more. In addition, we have an exclusive preview of the Central West End Association House & Garden Tour, as well as a special look at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers as they prepare local rarities for auction. Plus, we celebrate the 15th year of Shakespeare Festival St. Louis by taking you behind-the-scenes of Antony and Cleopatra. As you can see, LN is brimming with divertissement—and just like summer in St. Louis, it’s enough to keep you abuzz all season long. See you around!

CONTR IBU TOR S

‌W hat’s your St. Louis summer tradition? SARAH CONARD I ENJOY MANY ST. LOUIS SUMMER TRADItions, such as Cardinals games, The Muny and outdoor concerts, but my favorite is the Shakespeare Festival in Forest Park. To me, there are few things better than a bottle of wine, a blanket and the Bard under the stars. Plus it’s free, making it the perfect date night!

AMANDA DAHL I MEET FRIENDS WITH A BOTTLE OF WINE and grab dinner from the food trucks at the Art Hill Film Series, and I love catching a show at The Muny. We also have two traditions this time of year: our annual croquet game with loved ones, and a bike ride with family and friends along the Katy Trail to visit the wineries.

ROBYN DEXTER FOR ME, SUMMER IN ST. LOUIS MEANS numerous concerts at Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre, attending Fair Saint Louis, and hanging out with friends in Soulard. Once the hot days finally cool off at night, you can’t beat being outside! Delicious

Sincerely, Joan Berkman for St. Louis OASIS

I was thrilled to see (Brittany DIVERSIONS Nay’s) article on the St. Louis Artists’ Guild. It was beautifully written, capturing its important history and its exciting new chapter. I’ve been associated with the Guild for many A New Guild-ed Era years—first, as a volunteer, founding the photography section, as PR manager and then executive director (19992004). I have a very warm place in my heart for the Guild... The Artists’ Guild is a gem. Thank you for featuring them, telling their story, and letting readers know about the exciting times ahead. ST.

the editor Thanks so much for the wonderful article (by Lisa Watson), Jazzy and the Velten Family. Made me cry—well, this whole trip has been very emotional. I have been so lucky to have had this opportunity. Your generous article (about my bike ride) got the word out for the Humane Society—so great. I was wondering if you could put a short thank-you to all of my supporters? Their generous support surpassed my goal of $10,000 for the Humane Society of Missouri—Spay It Forward Fund. Words cannot describe my journey, but my heart is filled with gratitude.

Congratulations to the folks at Schlafly: Their Kolsch won the Washington Post’s Beer Madness contest for Best American Craft Beer. The tournament-style competition featured brackets ala college basketball’s March Madness. The second-place finisher was Kansas City’s own Boulevard Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale. Go, Missouri! The massive neon peacock sign outside Peacock Loop Diner in the Delmar Loop won first place in the international Signs of the Times competition. The 11-foot-wide, 1,800-pound sign has more than 680 feet of neon tubing, creating a peacock that fans out its neon feathers in sequence more than 200 times per hour. The sign was designed by Hope Edwards, based on a concept by Joe Edwards, with contributions from Kiku Obata & Co.; and was built by Piros Signs. Area catering concern Butler’s Pantry has been racking up the awards of late. The St. Louis Wedding Awards selected Butler’s Pantry as Caterer of the Year, while the International Special Events Society (ISES) presented Butler’s Pantry with its 2015 Louie Awards for Best Food Presentation, and Best Event Produced for a Non-Profit Organization (budget $75,000 and over). Congrats! KYLE MATHIS, bar manager at Taste in the CWE, had his cocktail creations Heart of Ruby and Surfboard Fizz written up in Wine Enthusiast. Well done! Kudos to St. Louis’ own Defiance Whiskey, which was recently awarded a bronze medal in the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and also took home a silver medal at the American Craft Spirits Association event in Austin. It’s been announced that The Wood Cask will be taking over the spot at 10332 Manchester Road in Kirkwood that used to be home to Eleven Mile House. Look for a debut sometime later this spring. The preliminary menu is available for perusal at thewoodcask.com. Sad news to report from Benton Park: The popular Luvy Duvy’s Cafe has closed its doors.

Bricktop’s

Sample the Feast! PLAZA FRONTENAC IS HOME TO SOME FINE restaurants; and in recent years, several freestanding eateries have set up shop outside around the mall. The most recent of these is Bricktop’s. This national chain is known for upscale food and ambience—a perfect combo that fits in well with the other area restaurants. The interior of Bricktop’s evokes that of a highend steakhouse, with low lights, dark colors and spacious booths. It also sports an open kitchen, one of our favorite restaurant features. There also is a separate bustling bar area, complete with flatscreen TVs for those who want to pop in for drinks and to catch the game. We settled in with an order of the Tempura Shrimp ($14) and Deviled Eggs & Millionaire’s Bacon ($11). The shrimp portion was more than generous, and the plethora of golden popcorn shrimp nuggets were coated with a sweet-andsour sauce. We paired this dish with a glass of Whispering Angel rosé ($11), which brought out some of the flavors in that sauce, as well as cutting through the richness of the batter. The deviled eggs were fairly straight-ahead takes on the backyard picnic classic. The bacon was perfectly cooked, with just the right balance of crispiness and chewiness. The strips were coated with what tasted like a maple glaze of some sort—contrasting nicely with the rich creaminess of the whipped egg yolks. On to the mains for the evening: the Chilean Sea Bass ($30) and the entree-sized Palm Beach Salad

You don’t need Angie’s list …

($20). The bass is a hearty fillet, about 8 ounces or so, coated with a light panko crust. A ginger sauce gives this dish a sweet and tangy Asian flavor. The fish itself expertly was sauteed and literally melted in our mouths. We especially appreciated the preparation of the vegetables served alongside—they were expertly steamed to give them a bit of crunch without being soggy, and the flavors weren’t covered up with sauces or glazes and such. The salad was a fairly modest portion, perhaps to assuage the guilt of indulging in such a rich dish. Those who tend toward salads to cut back on calories, beware! This dish has a creamy layer of guacamole, followed by one of tender lump crab meat, then a third of tomatoes, all topped with egg and dressed with a poached shrimp remoulade— definitely one decadent salad! Service was uber-prompt. Our dishes were perfectly timed and we had at least four servers touch the table during our visit, so we never had to worry about getting lost in the shuffle. Because of Bricktop’s location outside the mall, there’s plenty of parking to be had, and the proximity to I-64 makes it easy to get to. Bricktop’s also offers lunch service, a good way to impress those important clients, as well as a Sunday brunch menu. Now that the weather seems to have finally switched to springtime temps, we imagine the spacious patio area will see plenty of action. 10342 Clayton Road, 567-6300, bricktops.com

The special event commemorated Fainer’s 70th anniversary of his liberation from a Nazi concentration camp—one of several he had been held in for six years since the age of 9. One of his liberators, and now good friend, attended the ceremony. Fr. Bob Weiss, a former Jesuit, was a member of the army infantry that helped to free those held in Nazi camps. Fainer and Weiss co-wrote the Holocaust survivor’s autobiography, Silent for Sixty Years.

LIV ING RANKEN JORDAN

Beyond the Bedside

BY BRITTANY NAY

HIS SUMMER, RANKEN JORDAN Pediatric Bridge Hospital president and CEO Lauri Tanner will be hitting the greens with her patients. Among the young players will be Sam Ward, a 17-year-old with cerebral palsy, who has been golfing since he was a toddler. “He’s been playing with me for a number of years,” Tanner says. “CP has been a lifelong illness for him, but his parents didn’t let that stop him.” That’s the same mentality Tanner and the entire staff at Ranken Jordan take with all of their patients through the hospital’s ‘care beyond the bedside’ model. “We are the bridge between the acute care hospital and home,” she notes. “We don’t give up, and we keep working with kids.” Each day at Ranken Jordan, patients—from infants to toddlers to teens—are out of their rooms

and interacting in the community’s indoor and outdoor play spaces. “The nurses and therapists move with the patient, instead of the patient being confined in their hospital bed. We have computers on wheels, so we can provide care anywhere,” Tanner explains. “The kids experience the world like they are at home.” Some activities include sports games, symphony concerts, fishing and golfing, and shopping at the mall. Not only the patients, but also their families, get to practice being at home through Ranken Jordan. Parents are educated on the medications and technology surrounding their kids’ treatment, Tanner says. “We teach them ‘care beyond the bedroom’ for when they go home. Then, families feel more secure about their child being able to enter back into family life, instead of their whole lives changing and being anchored to the house.” While Ranken Jordan opened in 1941, the

hospital recently celebrated the 10-year anniversary at its current location. “When you think about the number of kids and families who have been told not to expect a lot—and how many we have been able to help—it’s remarkable,” Tanner notes. To help even more families, the hospital Continued on page 53

MANAGING ASTHMA

Know the Triggers BY CONNIE MITCHELL

‌A

STHMA IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMON CHRONIC childhood diseases. Almost 10 percent of all American children—about 6.8 million—have asthma, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; and St. Louis children’s asthma rates are double the national average, so says the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. “Some kids are triggered by colds and viruses and infections, so those kids actually tend to do better in the summertime because the winter viruses like RSV (a common respiratory infection) and flu make kids a lot sicker in the wintertime. So those kids who have asthma that is more viral-induced or infection-induced do better,” explains Dr. John Spivey, a Mercy Kids pediatric pulmonologist. “The children who have more allergyrelated asthma and are triggered more by tree pollens, grasses, and hot and humid air do tend to do a little bit worse in the summer.” Understanding what causes asthma attacks in children is important to successfully managing the disease, which causes airways to tighten; and results in coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. “It is very important for parents to be aware of early asthma symptoms, and to frequently check their child for these symptoms and treat appropriately,” says Dr. Lisa Ryan, a pediatrician on staff at Progress West Hospital and a member of BJC Medical Group. Parents should be able to recognize the difference between typical allergy symptoms and asthma. Sneezing; red, watery eyes; and a runny nose with clear mucous often occur due to allergies. Asthma, however, induces breathing difficulties. “Additionally, a child with asthma may have problems playing with peers, exercising or doing sports,” Ryan says. “It’s important to seek medical care any time you notice your child is having difficulty breathing, unable to do normal activities, or has a constant cough but no runny nose.” Avoiding allergy triggers, once they are identified by a physician, is a useful strategy for some people. Spivey recommends closing windows to keep pollen out of the house, taking a bedtime bath or shower to remove pollen from hair and skin, and wearing sunglasses on breezy days to prevent pollen from blowing into the eyes. “I’ll be honest, I want kids to play and have fun and be outside,” Spivey adds. “There obviously are some children with such severe allergies that maybe they do need to limit some of their time outside when their specific season is elevated, whether that’s trees or grasses.” However, asthma treatment is better now than ever before, he says, and many children can control their asthma very well. “Children with well-controlled asthma lead normal lives, and do not have to restrict their activities,” Ryan agrees. Mercy Kids is offering a free Managing Asthma workshop from 9 to 11 a.m., on Saturday, June 6. The workshop is led by pediatric asthma educators who will teach self-management skills, triggers and how to avoid them, and how to keep asthma under control. The workshop is free, but registration is required. Each child will receive an insulated bag to carry an inhaler and medications. Register online at mercy.net/ped-asthma.

AGE/SUN SPOTS

Spot a Problem?

I‌

F YOU SEE A SMALL SPOT OF DARKER SKIN develop on your face or hands, and suspect that you have an ‘age spot’ or a ‘sun spot,’ you’re probably right. “These brown spots tend to develop as we age. They can occur at any time, but are most common in people over 40,” says Dr. Amy Miller of St. Louis Skin Solutions. “They can occur as the result of prolonged or frequent exposure to the sun and tanning beds.” Prevention is a matter of protecting the skin from UV rays, so regular use of sunscreen is a must. Dr. M. Laurin Council, a Washington University dermatologist, recommends: daily use of sun protective clothing such as a hat, sunglasses and long sleeves; avoiding direct sunlight during hours of peak ultraviolet exposure from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; and wearing a daily broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater. In addition, the use of indoor tanning devices is explicitly discouraged, due to the increased risk of developing melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers, as well as the

“THESE BROWN SPOTS... CAN OCCUR ANY TIME, BUT ARE MOST COMMON IN PEOPLE OVER 40.” DR. AMY MILLER, St. Louis Skin Solutions

concerns with the development of sun spots. Fortunately, there are several options for treating these discolorations. “For over-the-counter products, Lytera by Skinmedica is the most effective medical-grade cream to reverse pigmentation,” recommends Molly DuBro, a cosmetic injection and laser specialist at Nayak Plastic Surgery. “When used twice daily on the face, the skin will become more even, and dark spots will fade.” Prescription medications containing retinol and Arbutase also are effective. Before beginning use of any type of topical fading cream, Council notes it is important to

BY CONNIE MITCHELL

check with a dermatologist to ensure the spots are simply due to sun damage, as well as to discuss proper usage. “For darker, resistant lesions, laser therapy can be used to treat individual lesions or to even out the skin tone, in general,” she says. “Laser treatments offer the most effective and immediate results, but typically have some involved recovery time. The most aggressive lasers can remove sun spots in one to two treatments, but will have a recovery time of one to two weeks per treatment.” Other devices, such as intense pulsed light (IPL or the ‘photofacial’), have little down-time, but require three to five treatments about a month apart to achieve the same degree of lightening, Council adds. Describing IPL, DuBro explains that the 30-minute treatment uses broadband light to target pigment in the skin and has no recovery time. “Over the course of a week, those damaged pigment cells are pulled to the surface and flake off.” She suggests a regular regimen of IPL treatments throughout the year for best results.

VEIN TREATMENT

Vain about Your Veins? BY CONNIE MITCHELL

‌A

S WE UNCOVER MORE SKIN FOR THE summer, some people are self-conscious about their veins. Showing off one’s vasculature is not an accepted mark of beauty in our culture, so removing visible veins may be a priority for some. In addition, varicose veins, the blue, raised, ropy-looking veins that appear primarily in legs, can cause discomfort; so treatment is a medical issue, not simply a cosmetic one. Varicose veins may cause aching, itching, cramping or a sensation of heaviness in the legs. When symptoms become troublesome, removing these veins is helpful. Sometimes referred to as ‘venous insufficiency’ or ‘vascular reflux,’ varicose veins form over time, due to faulty valves that allow some blood to flow backward and pool, instead of constantly moving forward. Although not considered dangerous, as the body compensates with increased blood flow elsewhere, the pooled blood causes the veins to enlarge and become visible. “We use a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins, in which a small catheter is inserted into the vein and heat is used to seal the vein off. It will then collapse and fade,” says Maria Bein, a

nurse sclerotherapist and clinical director at Vein Specialties. In the past, veins were ‘stripped,’ or removed surgically, but current practice, known as ‘endovenous ablation therapy,’ can be followed by removal of the vein through a tiny puncture. “Ablation is done under local anesthetic in the office,” Bein says. It’s best performed in fall or winter to allow for the use of light compression stockings following the procedure. There also may be some mild bruising. Dr. Jeffrey Jim, a Washington University vascular surgeon, notes that most patients feel better after the initial procedure to treat varicose veins. “In the majority of cases, the patient’s symptoms disappear, and the appearance of the leg improves, so they’re satisfied and nothing else needs to be done,” he says. However, Jim notes sometimes “the veins are injured to the point where the residual veins are dilated and bothersome.” In these cases, the crooked, tangled-looking veins near the surface of the skin are removed through tiny punctures. Heat ablation is not used when the vein is very close to the skin’s surface, he says. While Jim and his colleagues have been using

these techniques successfully for several years, he notes that a new device was recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration and will be available soon. The VenaSeal Closure System has been used for some time in Europe with good results. Another area with potentially problematic veins is the back of the hand, according to Dr. Norman Bein, of Vein Specialties. “As we age, we lose fat in the skin of the hands and our blood vessels tend to look larger as they bulge toward the surface. These ropy-looking veins can be removed through tiny punctures in the skin, and the hands tend to look much younger as a result,” he concludes.

If you’ve looked in the mirror and felt the size or shape of your nose detracts from your overall appearance, we have the solution. Dr. Brock Ridenour is board-certiﬁed and one of the area’s most experienced rhinoplasty surgeons. Known for his natural and realistic results, his proven technique featuries: • Modest reﬁnements that complement your skin, facial features and ethnic identity. • Minimal excision of bone and cartlage. • Correction of a deviated septum or other airway obstruction. • A realistic and pleasing appearance. Whether you want to change your appearance or correct a structural issue that may impact breathing, Dr. Ridenour has the skill and experience to have you looking your best.

The Color Challenge BY ROBYN DEXTER

Flue Liners

SUSAN BLOCK PHOTOS BY DIANE ANDERSON

Tamsin Mascetti, Tamsin Design Group I don’t think there’s any particular color that’s the most challenging. The most challenging thing is having nice color balance and being careful not to use too much of one color. You can really throw in any color you love as long as you use the right amount of it. It’s good to have fun with color, but be sparing. Create a balance.

Colors brighten our world; but there are some shades that can be tricky to use when it comes to home-interior design. We asked local designers about challenging colors and how to work around them. Susan Block, The Designing Block Mauve, fleshy tones and chartreuse can be difficult to work with. Undertones in those colors can suck tones right out of peoples’ ( s k i n tone). I’m all about making sure people look good in their own home. Your skin should glow in your home; but a lot of times, people don’t think about themselves in their space and worry more about what colors go together. The best way to work with fleshy tones is to pull in some other colors that are better with your skin tones, like deeper rose colors that add a little life to the room.

Carolyn Peterson, Carolyn Peterson Designs Outdated colors like burgundy can be difficult to work with. But if it’s your favorite color, you can update it and bring it into these times. A color like burgundy can be blended with this year’s color of the year: marsala. It’s possible to work older colors with new colors and make (the old ones) fresh again.

Peterson suggests updating an outdated color like burgundy by pairing it with the Pantone Color of the Year, marsala.

CJ Knapp, Savvy Surrounding Style The most difficult is purple —a color people often like. But because it ranges from blue to red undertones, it’s often difficult to find enough supporting fabrics and decorative items within the same color value to complete a space. The best way to work around it is to add in its complementary color, which is yellow. Always add green, too. If you look to nature, every color combination looks good with green. If you look at an eggplant purple, that has more of a blue-green, based on the leaf. If you look at an African violet, it’s more of a pure purple, which looks better with a lime green.

Jeanne Lashmett, JML Interior Design White is an everyday challenge. There are so many shades of white: It can look mauve, gray, blue, taupe... There’s a lot to look at. The best way to determine the kind of white you want is to stick a sample up on a wall for a few days and look at it from different angles in different lights. That helps you determine the value of that particular white. It’s a process of trial and error. Grayed-out whites are becoming more popular, along with muted whites. There’s a difference between warm whites and cool whites, so you want to define if you want a warm or cool scheme early on, because that sets the mood of a room. White can be a real learning experience.

Teddy Karl, The Great Cover-Up I find grays terrible to work with. For a while, they were ‘the new neutral.’ But I think they’re so void of personality, making it difficult to design with them. However, I don’t think that means you can’t make a good look with gray. Gray can be either taupe or blue, so you have to make sure you’re being careful to select harmonious colors when you put things together. The way color palettes are these days, the grays blur to aquas and taupes, so there’s such a wide range that it makes it difficult. I think that’s the hardest thing, because people think they want gray, but they don’t know specifically what shade they’re looking for. Karl says gray can be difficult to work with since its tones can vary greatly.

Create a pleasing impact by displaying collections in a wall grouping, instead of hanging items singularly. Whether you wish to showcase plates, etchings, paintings or prints, let your walls tell a story.

Make your new house addition seamless with updated exterior siding and trim. Eliminate mismatched materials, and the addition will appear as if it has always been there.

Draw the eye with a statement wall in a single room. Choosing to paint one bedroom wall enhances the room, and makes your upholstered bed stand out in a stylish way.

The geometric trend continues to be at the forefront in textiles, wall coverings and accessories. This black-and-white pattern mimics an expensive tile, but choosing to paint the wall instead saved the homeowners money, and allows them to change it easily as trends shift. It’s simple geometry.

One of the most amazing ways to set a kitchen apart is through the use of multiple piece moldings. Not just crown moldings—base moldings, decorative toe-kicks, and lastly, crowning the entire space with the cabinet crown. When you start to stack moldings, to edit properly is crucial. The installation is not quick, either, so you must have an experienced carpenter to make the corners perfect.

Meet the Performers Sing For Siteman

COMPILED BY ROBYN DEXTER

‌N

EXT MONTH, THE HOT TICKET IS THE SING FOR SITEMAN CONCERT, AN ANNUAL EVENT THAT BENEFITS research projects through Siteman Cancer Center’s Discovery Fund. The Monday, June 15, show begins at 7:30 p.m. at John Burroughs’ Performing Arts Center. In addition to performances from a lineup of acclaimed Opera Theatre artists and renowned pianist Carol Wong, attendees will be treated to a wine-and-dessert reception following the show. Guests also will have an opportunity to mingle with the artists. What to talk about? Get to know them in a unique way, below:

Jonathan Beyer Beyer is from Chicago and is currently based in New York. If he wasn’t a singer, he says he’d be a figure-skating commentator. His celebrity crush is Chris Pratt.

Sydney Mancasola Mancasola, originally from Redding, California, currently calls Philadelphia home. If she wasn’t a singer, she would love to open a school and participate in education reform. Her celebrity crush is Russell Brand. If her house were on fire, she would have a different type of response than some of the others: Becoming a nomadic opera singer has caused me to be fairly detached from material objects; but in my imaginary life, where I have an adorable little chaumière in the south of France, I would probably save my exotic house plants and of course, I would have to make sure Russell would get out safely, too. Before a performance, her routine includes sleeping in as late as possible, doing some stretching, and listening to Leontyne Price sing Trovatore to get pumped up.

Anthony Kalil Kalil, from Goshen, Indiana, is currently in New York. He went through the Lindemann Young Artist Development Program. If he wasn’t a singer, he would be a painter. His celebrity crush is Scarlett Johansson. If his house were on fire, he would save his family photos. Before a performance, his routine includes eating gummy bears.

Christopher Tiesi Tiesi is from Chicago and currently resides in Philadelphia. He is a graduate of Juliard and Curtis. If he wasn’t a singer, he would love to play soccer professionally. He says he has never had a celebrity crush. If his house were on fire, he would save his family. Before a performance, his routine includes eating a huge lunch.

Emily Fons Fons, from Milwaukee, is currently based in Westfield, New Jersey. If she wasn’t a singer, she would love to work in animal rescue or wildlife rehabilitation. Though she wouldn’t call it a celebrity crush, she says she’d love to meet Alan Alda because she’s read all of his books. If her house were on fire, she says she wouldn’t be worried about materials. “I would make sure my dog was with me, because the rest is just stuff.” Before a performance, her routine includes doing yoga or going for a run, phone calls to family members, and flipping through the whole score to envision her staging.

Susannah Biller Biller is from Georgetown, Tennessee, and says her current base is her Tumi/Samonsite suitcase. If she wasn’t singing, she’d be teaching. Her celebrity crushes are Benedict Cumberbatch, Chris Pine and Patrick Stewart. If her house were on fire, she would save her computer backup, a painting done by a family friend and “my handsome husband.” Before a performance, her routine includes drinking bottles of Gatorade and water, resting as much as possible, catching up on emails and phone calls, and making dinner for intermission.

Brandon Cedel Cedel is from Charleston, South Carolina, and is currently based in New York. He is a graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music. If he wasn’t singing, he would be doing something in the real estate world. His celebrity crushes are Patrick Dempsey and Benjamin McKenzie. If his house were on fire, he would save his scores that have all his notes and translations, his phone and iPad, and Jonathan Beyer. Before a performance, his routine includes getting a good night’s sleep, going out for coffee/ meal, coming home for a nap/Netflix, and going to the theater.

THEATER REVIEW

Antony and Cleopatra BY MARK BRETZ

THE STORY: Following the assassination of Julius Caesar and the subsequent defeat of Brutus and Cassius, Mark Antony is proclaimed one of a trio to rule the Roman Empire, along with Octavius Caesar and Lepidus. Antony oversees the eastern portion of the empire, and in doing so, falls in love with Cleopatra, queen of Egypt.

Dottie Englis adorns the players in richly evocative costumes that bring the 40 B.C. era to life, as does Rusty Wandall’s blend of sounds that alternate between the bellicose and the romantic. Strains of alluring Middle Eastern melodies fill Greg Mackender’s infectious musical score, while Meg Brinkley’s properties suggest anything from venomous snakes to soldierly revelry.

Already married for the third time, Antony is more or less relieved to hear of his wife Fulvia’s death, which frees him for further dalliance with Cleopatra. Lepidus, however, suggests that their political union will be stronger if Antony marries Caesar’s unattractive sister, Octavia. Caesar, Lepidus and Antony then prepare for war against Sextus Pompey, who is leading an army of rebels to avenge the defeat of his father by Julius Caesar.

An unnamed special effects artisan wowed the audience on opening night with some behind-the-scenes naval war ‘action’ that sent water splashing into the front rows, propelled by a booming battle. Fight choreographer Paul Dennhardt enlivens proceedings with some engaging physical combat, while voice and text coach Suzanne Mills makes sure the players speak the Bard’s poetry with clear, convincing diction.

Antony, now defending the empire in Athens, sends Octavia back to Rome while he goes to Alexandria to rejoin the jealous Cleopatra. Octavius Caesar angrily declares war against Antony and Cleopatra, defeating Antony at sea with Rome’s superior navy. Antony blames his lover and her navy for betraying him and leading to his defeat, vowing to kill Cleopatra.

Doing stellar work in supporting roles are local performers Alan Knoll as Cleopatra’s eunuch advisor Mardian, Kari Ely as her fun-loving handmaiden Charmian, and Gary Glasgow as the low-key ruler Lepidus. Michael James Reed is polished and Reginald Pierre lends his clarion, booming voice to the roles of Caesar’s soldiers Agrippa and Maecenas, respectively.

When she hears of his plan, Cleopatra leaks word that she already is dead. The remorseful Antony is devastated and tries to kill himself but fails. Mortally wounded, he is taken to Cleopatra and dies. Seeing Antony dead and not wanting to become a pawn of Rome, Cleopatra then takes her own life. Octavius orders that the two lovers should be buried together.

Moses Villarama is humorous as Antony’s unfairly attacked messenger Eros, Charles Pasternak is commanding as the no-nonsense Octavius and Raina Houston is effective both as Cleopatra’s handmaiden Iras and the ignored Octavia. Conan McCarty handles the humor and the pathos of Antony’s right-hand man Enobarbus, and Matt Lytle is the combative Pompey. Jesse Munoz, Ryan Jacobs, Bernell Lassai III and Robert Riordan capably fill smaller parts.

HIGHLIGHTS: Shakespeare Festival St. Louis celebrates its 15th anniversary of free performances of plays by William Shakespeare with an eclectic production of Antony and Cleopatra. Directed by St. Louis native Mike Donahue, it’s a breezy, delightful potpourri of romance, comedy, tragedy and history that offers something for every Shakespearean aficionado.

GROUP: Shakespeare Festival St. Louis VENUE: Shakespeare Glen in Forest Park DATES: Through June 14 (except Tuesdays) RATING: A 4.5 on a scale of 1-to-5. TICKETS: Free admission More reviews available at laduenews.com

Antony and Cleopatra isn’t Shakespeare at his most profound. In Shakespeare Festival St. Louis’ sparkling presentation, though, it’s a little of everything that Will did so well entertaining and informing his audiences more than four centuries ago. And you can’t beat the price.

One of the lesser performed works in the Bard’s canon, this rendition of Antony and Cleopatra belies its secondary status in popularity. While its two acts approach three hours, Shakespeare Festival’s telling of this eternal love story is smoothly paced and leavened throughout with liberal doses of comedy.

Artistic and executive director Rick Dildine notes that the cast is performing on a brand new staging platform that is more efficient and environmentally friendly. It’s a handsome plateau, to be sure, and its downward slope enhances the effect of players entering from any side to the main thrust of the action. The set is further stylized with Scott Neale’s quintet of austere, imposing, obelisk-type columns. They’re all sheathed in a gold laminate that is bathed in starkly accentuated colors brought to the fore both by natural sunlight and, after sundown, with John Wylie’s beautiful lighting design.

Antony is a womanizer and Cleopatra is a shameless hedonist. Yet, or perhaps because of those traits, they seem a good match for one another. Their strong physical attraction gets the presentation off to a rousing start, thanks to the fine efforts of Jay Stratton and Shirine Babb in the title roles. Each of them infuses their characters with a lust for life that challenges the very structure of empires.

Leonardo’s Kitchen & Wine Bar

Classic, Casual & Oh-So-Satisfying BY SIDNEY LEWIS

HEN IT COMES TO ITALIAN FOOD, heading to The Hill for a bite is a no-brainer. The choices, though, can be daunting—it seems there’s a great restaurant on every block. Now, there’s a new place serving up fine Italian cuisine, Leonardo’s Kitchen and Wine Bar, making the decision of where to eat even harder. Leonardo’s is the casual cousin to LoRusso’s Cocina, both under the direction of Chef Rich LoRusso. It’s housed in a rehabbed gas station, with a couple of pumps still around for added ambiance. The old overhead garage door was open during our visit, providing an open-air feel to the inside dining area, though we opted to sit outside under the covered patio. Orders are taken at the counter and the food is delivered to the table. The Leonardo’s menu has a fairly large selection of soups, salads, sandwiches, wings, as well as a variety of specialty pizzas, making choosing a pretty difficult proposition. The final consensus was the Meatball Sandwich ($8), and the Piggy ($14), one of the pies from the Specialty Red Pizza list. The meatball sandwich is a straight-ahead classic Italian favorite: jumbo house-made meatballs smothered in tomato sauce with provolone and Parmesan cheese served on chewy, crusty bread. Ours came with a side of house chips (fries or slaw also are options). The hearty meatballs and sauce eventually overwhelmed the bread, and necessitated that we break out the knives and

forks to finish it up. Fair warning: Extra napkins are imperative when digging into this sandwich! The Piggy is another no-nonsense dish that’s sure to satisfy pizza purists. A crispy crust—not too thin and not too thick—covered in tomato sauce; and topped with mini meatballs, sausage, bacon, salami, mozzarella and provolone. Meaty, cheesy and oh-so satisfying, this pizza is the perfect size to share, but easily can be devoured solo without too much guilt. As befits its status as a wine bar, Leonardo’s has a solid selection of Italian vinos by the glass and bottle. Our choice of wine to pair with dinner was the Pinot Bianco ($9 glass/$35 bottle), a crisp white similar to an un-oaked chardonnay in style, with tangy citrus notes. It cut through the heavy flavors of the sandwich and the pizza quite nicely. Along with plenty of wines, Leonardo’s also has spirits and beer available to quench your thirst, including that go-to Italian standard, Peroni ($5). In addition to dinner service, Leonardo’s offers a lunch menu available from 11 a.m until 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Hopefully, at some point, the powers that be will add some pasta options to the menu, as well (fingers crossed!). With its laid-back atmosphere and ultra-tasty fare, Leonardo’s should definitely be on your mind the next time you head to The Hill. 2130 Macklind Ave. 314-664-1410

About 280 golfers are expected to drive and putt alongside some of the hospital’s young patients to aid in their journeys home. The hospital requires $1.8 million annually for day-to-day operations, and organizers hope the tournament will raise $200,000 or more. “We take

care of a population of patients who are the sickest of the sick, who are on a number of medications, and have had traumatic accidents or illnesses,” Tanner says, adding that funds raised at the event will help the hospital care for those kids. “We put the kids first in all we do—that’s what we live by, and it definitely shows in the kind of care we provide them, and the support we give their families.”
