From (good) rout cakes to (even better) riotous dinners, food historian Dr Annie Gray explains why the era was so pivotal in the birth of an identifiably British cuisine. She'll set into context all of Austen's ball suppers and explain exactly why so many people had gout. Drawing upon satire, literature and many years of wearing Regency fashion while cooking Regency food, Annie will take us through the eating rituals of the bon ton, as well as considering the foods themselves. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/warwick/grit-and-grace-women-of-the-regency-era/100001981407775996 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, food-drinks, fine-arts, womens-history-month - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 80.8, max: 80.8, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Warwick - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: The Court House Warwick - Venue - **lat**: 52.2811601 - **long**: -1.5872172 - **full address**: The Court House Warwick - Venue, Jury Street, Warwick, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Grit and Grace: Women of the Regency Era - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/935a81a6f712123fedf222f5b081998c4bcda096b1b429caa7249656350f13d0-rimg-w693-h670-dcd0c3af-gmir.jpg?v=1769536047 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Grit and Grace: Women of the Regency Era being held? - **A:** Grit and Grace: Women of the Regency Era takes place on Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 10:30 am to Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 03:30 pm at The Court House Warwick - Venue, Jury Street, Warwick, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Grit and Grace: Women of the Regency Era? - **A:** Tickets for Grit and Grace: Women of the Regency Era are priced at GBP 81 per person.
