Vermin

by Benny Ainsworth

Besotted couple Billy and Rachel have a rat problem. But lurking below the floorboards of their first home together is a much darker, deep-rooted horror the couple must confront – no matter how damaging or deadly.

VERMIN is an unsettling, unrelenting and heart-breaking dark comedy that peels back the layers of unchecked grief.

★★★★★ “Truly a brilliant one of a kind.” British Theatre Guide

★★★★★ “An exceptional piece of theatre.” Broadway Baby

★★★★ “Tautly staged, queasily funny and, at times, spectacularly nasty.” The Stage

Vermin played a celebrated run at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022 followed by a full run at the Arcola Theatre in Spring 2023.
