Synopsis

Chaotic camp life, mistaken loyalties, and quick banter drive a satire of military pride and romance.

In this brisk stage comedy, officers, nobles, and a brash young hero collide over duty, love, and rank. A wedding night fuels farce, misread signals, and a flurry of plans to outmaneuver rivals, all set in a colorful, send-up of courtly pretensions.



Follow the scheming generals, scheming courtiers, and the clever women who keep the gears turning as the action hops from camp to palace and back, mixing political wit with lighthearted romance.




  • Quick-paced dialogue that foregrounds character quirks and comic misunderstandings.

  • A cast of soldiers, nobles, and attendants tangled in plots about promotion, marriage, and power.

  • Playful scenes of flirtation, bravado, and verbal sparring that fuel the humor.

  • A satirical look at hierarchy, ambition, and the theater of authority.



Ideal for readers who enjoy witty ensembles, theatrical farce, and brisk, character-driven humor in a setting of grand entrances and political plotting.



Regolstein: A Comedy offers a lively glimpse into a world where status clashes with affection, and laughter becomes the sharpest weapon.
