Albion Awakens at the Fitzrovia Chapel

‘… went riding for a Vision, a Vision of Humanity,
Man, God and Beast communing for one moment in Eternity…’

John Constable aka John Crow performs ‘The Book of The Goose’ from ‘The Southwark Mysteries’ in the Fitzrovia Chapel, London, 22nd November 2025 

This event, ‘Albion Awakens’, was part of Ben Edge’s ‘Children of Albion’ exhibition (6th-26th November 2025) – featuring The Belles of London City, Pearly King and Queens, Steve Micalef and John Crow – with an impromtu Goosey guest-appearance by Michelle Watson – all culminating in the launch of Max Reeves’s book ‘Crossbones Graveyard’.
