Imagine Christmas without turkey, roast potatoes, crackers, cards and even Father Christmas, come to that without electric light and central heating too - how did the people of medieval England celebrate Christmas? Was it a time of magic? Of feasting and gift-giving? Of entertainment, Christmas shows and pantomime? Based on many years of studying the everyday lives of ordinary medieval people, Toni Mount will help you discover that our forefathers were not much different from ourselves when it came to Christmas time.

Tickets: £5.00. Bookers who purchase tickets for all six Wigmore Lectures in the same transaction receive a discount of £6.00.
