Peter's vocal talents and ability to play the tall, handsome leading man has established his career, with previous roles including 'The Prince' in Cinderella (alongside Tony Award-winner Lea Salonga) and Tony Manero in Saturday Night Fever.
He still credits Conservatorium lecturer Garrick Jones as his major influence, alongside top industry mentors who came to Mackay.
Peter said the past year had been the best of his life so far, with milestones aplenty on the professional and personal fronts.
"I am a permanent resident of the USA and I am married! My wife Harriette is living here with me in Vegas ... I can't believe where I am and what I am doing. It truly is a thrill and a blessing to be performing at the top of my industry."
