Poet John Crow
John Constable is a playwright, poet and performer. His plays include Tulip Futures, the stage adaptation of Gormenghast and his solo shows I Was An Alien Sex God and Spare. He is widely known as John Crow, the urban shaman who raised the spirit of ´The Goose´, a medieval sex worker, at Cross Bones, south London´s outcasts´ graveyard. The ´Goose Vision´ inspired his best-known work, The Southwark Mysteries, which was performed in Shakespeare´s Globe and Southwark Cathedral. In his John Crow persona he conducts The Halloween of Cross Bones and the vigils held at Cross Bones gates on the 23rd of every month. He curates a shrine at the gates and has worked for many years to protect the site as a garden of remembrance. John performs his poetry world-wide and hosted The Palace of Wisdom, the all-night poetry tent at the Glastonbury Festival. His Sha-Manic Plays, The Southwark Mysteries, and his stage adaptation of Mervyn Peake´s Gormenghast, are published by Oberon Books. A selection of his poetry, Spark In The Dark, is published by Thin Man Books
