His most famous creation is Beau Tyler, a Tony Robbins style motivational speaker, who has appeared in television commercials and has his own stage show.
Most recently Peter has branched back into political satire and comedy as himself - not such a big jump as he has a 1st Class Honours degree in Politics from the University of Melbourne and has been an occasional writer for Metro and North and South magazines on social and political issues. Peter's fast wit, ability to improvise, solid research and organisational abilities also see him in demand as an MC. And he’s happy to collaborate with other entertainers – he knows most of them personally!!
