Various and Sundry

Caroling with the Bard, kinda

Who doesn’t like caroling? And who doesn’t William Shakespeare?

Well, quite a few people in both camps, actually… but let them stew in their camps like Achilles in his tent.

If you, like me, think that those are two great tastes that go great together, Mya Gosling, the creator of Good Tickle Brain, gets you.

More importantly, she has devised Shakespearean Christmas Carols not once, nor twice,  but thrice, and, um tetralogically?

Really, it’s like all the Comedy of Errors where all the errors are songs and — okay, it’s not like that.

So, it’s more like all the history plays, which when you watch them in sequence and — okay, it’s not like that, either.

Look, it’s a bunch of takes on Shakespeare plays or characters which you can sing about with tunes may already know because, y’know, Christmas carols. If you don’t find yourself singing along to at least one involuntarily, you’re just not feeling the season. (or not into Christmas carols or Shakespeare as noted above).

And if you’re really into singing them, consider supporting Gosling, who like many web comic artists, is using Patreon.

If you’ll excuse me, I’m off to contemplate more rhymes with ‘Crispin.’
