At this time of year it’s hard to resist an opportunity for a good wassail and today Shakespeare’s Singing Advent Calendar comes to you from one of the fine fireplaces of Shakespeare’s Birthplace where the staff are beginning to make merry. Actor Martin Smith and Birthplace guides Helen Smith and Edwyna Whitaker revel in the singing of Plumpy Bacchus – the drinking song from Antony and Cleopatra. Visit shakespeare.org.uk for the final festive musical delights of Shakespeare’s Singing Advent Calendar as we head towards Christmas Eve.
