Ivy Tiller: Vicar’s Daughter, Squirrel Killer

‘You know you act like you’re not from here.’

Entrenched in her picturesque Devonshire village, Ivy Tiller is preparing to wage a war. Her target: the invasive grey squirrel. Her goal: to oust the invaders and restore the native red squirrels as the ‘rightful’ inhabitants.

Galvanised by her important mission, Ivy’s determination swells to uncomfortable heights.

A darkly comic new play from Bea Roberts, Ivy Tiller: Vicar’s Daughter, Squirrel Killer challenges who belongs and who thrives.

It is premiered by the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Studio Theatre, The Other Place, Stratford-upon-Avon in October 2022.
