Regina with Kate Williams at Storyhouse

From Cleopatra to Grace Kelly, an epic new history of royal women that shatters the myths we have built around them

To mark the release of her eagerly anticipated new book, REGINA, celebrated historian Kate Williams returns to Storyhouse for an enthralling historical journey into the world of queens, empresses, princesses, mistresses and ladies-in-waiting. Stories about royal women form some of our most foundational myths about femininity, and yet their legacies have been almost entirely constructed by the words and images of men.
