This Lord Mayor’s Show Day, Saturday 12 November, visitors of all ages are invited to join in the celebrations at St Paul’s cathedral. Entry will be free all day, and visitors will be able to enjoy Animal Parade: a musical pageant for children and adults.

Narrated by actor Brian Blessed, Animal Parade is a wild and wacky depiction of ten familiar animals, from the tallest to the fastest, the biggest to the nastiest. This affectionate caricature of wildlife explores the unusual characteristics of these creatures in a thrilling and entertaining assortment of organ effects. There will be three performances at 1pm, 2pm and 3pm.

Music by Iain Farrington and verses by Esther Eidinow.

Simon Johnson: Organ

Brian Blessed: Narrator
