Abstract
On a late October day of sunshine and showers, around 100 people witnessed a reconstruction of the 1621 LordMayor’s Show, on its 400th anniversary, on a site onlymetres away from one of its original locations on Cheapside in the heart of the City of London. No such re-enactment of mayoral pageantry has taken place in London since 1988. The organisers – myself and Robert Crighton of Beyond Shakespeare – are very grateful to all those who supported, participated in, and applauded this ephemeral taster of Edward Barkham’s inauguration festivities. We are also indebted to St Mary le Bow church and the Worshipful Company of Founders, and to the various organisations that funded Triumph 1621: the Society for Renaissance Studies, Cheapside Business Alliance, and Bath Spa University. Finally, we thank The London Journal for publishing these two ‘perspectives’ on Triumph 1621.
