About this Event

🎭 Play Reading Series Step into Oklahoma Shakespeare’s Play Reading Series! Hear the words come alive in a staged reading, then join the cast for a lively conversation. It’s all about celebrating the craft of storytelling and sparking fun, thought‑provoking dialogue together.

Synopsis Erin Woods, acclaimed author of Jane Austen’s Christmas Cracker, brings her wit and charm to the Regency stage. How to Write a Regency Romance is a playful meta‑comedy that pulls back the curtain on the tropes we adore—spirited heroines, brooding gentlemen, and the delicate dance of courtship. As aspiring writers and would‑be lovers collide, the rules of romance are tested, twisted, and hilariously re‑imagined.

Audiences are swept into a world of drawing rooms, duels, and dazzling dialogue, where questions of love, art, and authenticity unfold against the backdrop of Regency society. Beneath the laughter lies Woods’s sharp exploration of gender, creativity, and the timeless allure of storytelling.

Why You’ll Love It 🌟 A sparkling new play from a celebrated Austen‑inspired author 😂 A witty send‑up of romance tropes, full of banter and surprises 🎭 Elegant costumes, quills, and candlelight set the Regency mood ❤️ A heartfelt look at love, independence, and the joy of writing itself

Presented by Oklahoma Shakespeare Join Oklahoma Shakespeare for this delightful romp through the Regency imagination, where Erin Woods’s wit and daring shine as brightly as ever.
