The Arrogant Worms at Meaford Hall
2025-07-04 19:30 - 23:00 | Meaford Hall, 12 Nelson St E, Meaford, ON, Canada
The Arrogant Worms have spent over three decades making fun of a big dumb world. Their songs have been played on the radio, the internet, and in outer space (on the space shuttle Endeavour).
The Worms began at Queen’s University in 1991 when some members of the student cabaret group, The Queen’s Players, started writing songs and sketches for the campus radio station CFRC. Soon the group became The Arrogant Worms (Chris Patterson, Mike McCormick, and Trevor Strong) who have since toured ceaselessly across Canada (and select other parts of the world), released 13 albums, and recorded with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra. Their song, The Last Saskatchewan Pirate, has been covered by bands such as Captain Tractor and The Longest Johns, and their Happy Happy birthday song is a viral sensation with over one hundred million views of the various fan videos on YouTube. More than thirty years after they began, The Arrogant Worms continue to provide tuneful and silly escapism for everyone who needs it.
What better way to celebrate Canada than with this hilarious, musical, fun family show!
Proudly presented by Meaford Hall

Synopsis
Montreal, 1957. Michel Paquette, 12 years old, skips Sunday mass to go to the Saint-Amour et Fille publishing house, where he immerses himself in the latest poetry collections published by Archange and his daughter, Rose.
Charlotte, Archange’s granddaughter and Michel’s friend, eagerly distributes the pamphlet Vive le Québec Laïque, written by her grandfather, in class with the support of their anarchist teacher, André Rochette. This pamphlet enrages Vicar Cotnoir, the spiritual director of the students at Saint-Eusèbe de la Mélasse school.
The Church retaliates; the Cardinal Madore Zouaves demolishes the publishing house presses, and Rochette is dismissed. Michel and his friends take revenge against Vicar Cotnoir, whose actions towards children are questionable.
With the help of Le Matou, a mysterious and fantastical character, Michel’s grandmother, Délima Paquette, brings the neighborhood together around her meatball stew, infusing a touch of madness where gloom was threatening to take hold.

This event is free of charge.

This year will be the 30th anniversary of the annual Noon Hour Series – an inclusive weekly summer celebration of music in our community. For most of the years, Georgian Shores United Church at 4th Ave and 10th Street East in Owen Sound has opened its doors each Wednesday afternoon in July and August to welcome this inclusive, multi-generational concert series.
Originally organized and developed by Joachim Ostertag with support from his family, this past two years Kelda Mikalson, a local singer and music teacher, has coordinated the series.
The organizers of the Noon Hour Series and Georgian Shores United Church believe that music is for sharing.
“If you have been shy to attend indoor concerts in the past because they seem so formal and full of mysterious rules, we’ve got you. Come and relax in the cool, eat your lunch, move to the music, cheer when you enjoy a passage, whatever feels good.”
Children are encouraged to attend. Whether you have a penny or a 50 to contribute we’d love to see you there at any or all of the concerts.
