Being English, Peter brings an international flavor to the US comedy scene, sometimes making you think you are watching Masterpiece Theatre or BBC America.  He began performing in sketch comedy as an undergraduate at Trinity College, Cambridge in the 1960s, and in 2002 returned to the stage after a thirty five year  absence, during which time he moved to the USA, narrowly avoiding having to become European.  Peter’s rants include bits about growing up in England during WWII (even before it was clear who was going to win), gossipy stuff about the Royals, snippets of Shakespeare, and all the perils of being a senior citizen.  He is almost the oldest stand up comedian in New England, and plans to perform for  many more years.
