The pleasure of your company is requested at the Phillips for a Regency Games Party!
Have you ever wondered how to play Regency games like Whist, Faro, or Loo?
Join us for an entertaining afternoon as we discover games and activities enjoyed in Jane Austen's time.
For those who are not card players, like Anne Elliot, you might like to try Spillikins or a
modern Jane Austen-themed game or puzzle!

What if...
Elizabeth had married Mr. Wickham?

Fanny had married Henry?
|
Emma had married Frank?

Many of Jane Austen's characters were contemplating marriage with someone other than the one they ended up with. There were definitely a number of narrow misses!
What if those marriages had taken place?
Join us as we explore what might have happened. Think about your favourite Austen narrow escapes and come prepared to share your thoughts as we discuss "what if"!

We look forward to seeing you there!
