Fact #53600
When:
Short story:
Pablo Fanque's Circus Royal plays at The Town Meadows, Rochdale, England, UK, Europe. One hundred and twenty four years later, while filming the promotional video for Strawberry Fields Forever in Sevenoaks, Kent, UK, John Lennon of The Beatles visits an antique shop and buys a circus poster advertising this performance. The text of the poster will, in due course, inspire the lyrics of Lennon's song Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite.
