The Berry Man - 'decked with wild fruits and foliage' and the Corn Queene will be leading an Autumn Harvest Celebration on Sunday 24th October, starting at 12.00 noon at Bankside, Southwark, by Shakespeare's Globe. The October Plenty procession, put on by The Lion's Part theatre company, will also feature a hobby horse, strung with cakes and loaves. It will finish up at Borough Market, where the company will perform a number of 16th century 'Nonsensenightplays' and stage the execution of John Barleycorn. And all for free!
