STAGES with Peter Eyers

'Together Wherever We Go' - An Entertainment Dynasty; Warren and Pam Kermond


Listen Later

Warren and Pam Kermond belong to a dynasty of performers who have made an indelible mark on the performing arts in Australia and abroad, in a range of theatrical styles - Vaudeville, Comedy, Acrobatics, Musical Theatre and Dance. Their stages have been vast and varied; from the touring tent shows of Sorlies to the majesty of the Tivoli and the global club circuit. "It's experience that counts" And they have it in spades!
Pam is one of 11 children. An enthusiastic Aunt suggested that she should take dance lessons; and so began a career in show business. Initially this was in a variety show titled 'Thanks For The Memories' and then as a magician's assistant to The Great Levante.
Growing up as the third, of now five generations of a show business family, Warren gained experience at a very early age in theatre, pantomime, night clubs, television, cabaret and Musical theatre. He has been involved in every aspect of the Entertainment Industry over the past fifty years and it is difficult to express his knowledge, credibility and understanding of the Industry both in Australia and Internationally.
Warren and Pam toured internationally with their celebrated double-act. Billed as an Acrobatic Song and Dance Act, they navigated tours and stages, enthralling and delighting audiences with a unique entertainment.
As an actor Warren played the role of Custus in the GFO production of Crazy For You and the role of The Rabbi alongside Topol in Fiddler on the Roof for TML Enterprises. He has been seen in numerous television commercials.
Pam developed a very successful dance school in which she trained several generations of performers over 41 years.
Warren appeared regularly on In Melbourne Tonight and other national television shows. He had his own TV program in Adelaide and was also a regular headliner at Wrestpoint and other major Theatre and Cabaret Venues.
Warren and Pam are a prominent fixture in our performing arts heritage. They are a link to an entertainment past that is now a memory - but one that we must acknowledge, investigate and celebrate. This is a conversation that is essential listening.
