Pam Ayres and George Fenton

Who Are You Calling Vermin?

Event details

Book & Lyrics by PAM AYRES, Music by GEORGE FENTON
Director: Loveday Ingram 

Pam Ayres returns to Storyhouse with a new Musical Concert based on her book WHO ARE YOU CALLING VERMIN? 

VERMIN is based on a recent book of poems, published in 2022, which has been set to music by BAFTA, EMMY, & IVOR NOVELLO Award-winning composer GEORGE FENTON.   The concert features Pam and George, and a cast of West End singers and musicians. 

The show is a light-hearted exploration of tension in the countryside, which in poems, songs and anecdotes scrutinises the loss of wildlife, the changing climate, second homeowners, and the ever-present conflict between humans and animals.     

Included are the shanty-singing fishermen, shotgun-toting toffs, and poor defeated Joe as he struggles with his new electric car.  Animals are not left out, and we hear the fragrant Dung Beetle Song, the streetwise Fox Rap, the grey squirrel as he sings his tragic, I Got The Wrong Face, and the horrible but true, Shitcreek River.  

From Pam Ayres & George Fenton, a hilarious evening of music, song and words about a subject that affects us all.
