?N? C?E?P?T?A.

There is a play Antony AND Cleopatra
If you remove cole from 'cleopatra you are left with 'pat ra.' 'Pat' could be Irishman and 'Ra'=artist
^ 'and' =with
'merry' could indicate an anagram of 'cole'

Thanks Davemano and EllieMay1. I think it must just be a rather weak clue and weak answer. If the answer is AND CLEOPATRA then 'with' supplies the 'and' and the rest gives Cleopatra as Ellie pointed out. However to have the crossword answer as part of a famous play is not aesthetically pleasing! Thank you anyway.
A pleasure - good look. I agree with your comments.
You're welcome zippy. Agree it's a strange clue
