ing new approaches to it, and opening this out to his fellow actors. Cicely Berry, OBE, Voice Director, Royal Shakespeare Company. Returning to acting after a break for many years I found Peter's workshops to be invaluable. Working closely with Peter in a pair-based environment also helped me to both refine my skills and gain confidence. I would wholeheartedly recommend Peter's courses to any actor who wishes to further their craft in a safe, fun and yet challenging environment. Elizabeth Marvelly, Singer, Actor

Peter your passion for your craft and your desire to engage with audiences of all ages was inspiring. Hilary Beaton, CEO, Downstage Theatre
I can thoroughly recommend Peter as a marvellous proponent of the principles and Techniques he has encountered and uses himself in his acting processes. He is a gifted man with much to contribute to his profession. Dean Carey, Director, Actors Centre Australia
I found this course really valuable. You had no ego about teaching us – which meant I never felt you were imposing your own views on us, rather you let us discover things ourselves but also shared your wisdom and experience freely. Hannah Banks, Auckland Participant
You are a wonderfully insightful and optimistic actor, and this allows you to draw the very best work out of everyone. But what is unique about this course is that you aim and succeed in giving everyone involved the skills to be this for themselves. And – above all, the classes were FUN and challenging and filled with great people! Thanks! Lotte St. Clair, Bell Shakespeare Company Actor & Sydney Participant
Peter is an excellent teacher, he has an intuition of knowing what to say and how much to say to get the best out of a performer. Also Peter's history and skill as an actor himself provides a great range of knowledge and experience which he shares generously. I highly recommend Peter and his courses to any actor. Chad Moffit, Wellington Participant (2013)
Thank you so much for an invigorating, inspiring, purposeful weekend. The workshop was hugely beneficial and it was great to be able to learn from yourself as well as others in the class. I think the structure worked really well, the exercises were so useful, your feedback invaluable and I also enjoyed all your industry and career stories - helped make the lessons that much more 'real'. You've got a great way of imparting knowledge and guiding students on their own journey. Thanks also for introducing us to scene group study - a very useful technique.”
