Biog
Peter was born in Truro, Cornwall. His mother, who from Cornwall, works as a Mental Health Worker. His father, who from East London, works as a Carpenter. He was raised by his mother, mostly in Cornwall, but also with his father in East London.
Peter was educated at Tretherras School in Newquay, Cornwall. He excelled at Drama, Art and English, but didn't commit to anything else, apart from sports, such as Boxing and Surfing.
After leaving School, Peter moved to Bristol, and threw himself into the then powerful Art scene, the city was producing at the time. Its urban, gritty, yet poetic, musical art movement was a major influence. Fused with this, Peter found his passion for Acting.
Peter spent two years, acting for the Bristol Old Vic Youth Theatre, and then one year professionally, for the Bristol Old Vic Theatre Company. Also at this time, Peter made his screen début in the BBC Series 'Casualty', playing a small role, opposite the Actor 'George Costigan'.
Peter then left Bristol for London, and continued his studies as an Actor, at the 'Central School of Speech and Drama'. Since graduating from Central, he has worked in Theatre, TV and Independent Film.
