For one night only, an evening with the inimitable poet Pam Ayres, including material from her bestselling books along with some new poems and stories.
Pam's show was simply brilliant! Witty, personal and very funny - She is a poet for the people and Her verses portray a wicked sense of humour, and deal with subjects not normally thought to be worthy of poetry. Top entertainment!
Pam Ayres MBE (born March 14, 1947) is a British writer of humorous poetry and was born in Stanford in the Vale, Berkshire in England. After leaving school she joined the Civil Service - it has recently been revealed that she was working for MI5! She soon left there to sign up to the Women's Royal Air Force, and it was there that she decided she wanted to be an entertainer. She began reading her verses at the local folk club in Oxfordshire, and this led to an invitation to read on the local BBC radio station in 1974. In 1975 Ayres appeared on the television talent show Opportunity Knocks. This led to a wide variety of guest appearances on TV and radio shows. Since then she has published six books of poems, toured in a one woman stage show, briefly hosted her own TV show and performed her stage show for the Queen. She regularly appears on the radio show Just a Minute and hosts Ayres on the Air, a radio show of her poetry and sketches
Bravo!
