“I laughed so hard my stomach ached for hours afterwards”

Pam Ayres

Thursday 24 November 2016

Pam Ayres has sold millions of books, albums and DVDs, and is a radio and TV regular. She’s been making us laugh for more then 40 years with her hair-trigger timing and an unmatched eye for the detail and absurdities of everyday life. She is absolutely unique and one of our most loved literary ladies.

Pam is back at the New Vic for one of her regular visits. Her shows always sell-out, so make sure to book in plenty of time!

“Pam Ayres is a poet for the people. Her verse portrays a wicked sense of humour, and deals with subjects not normally thought to be worthy of poetry.”   Melbourne Herald Sun
