Peter Withnell

A Perth local, bringing sharp self-deprecating humour to the stage. I draw inspiration from life’s unexpected plot twists , from a cost-of-living crisis, a midlife crisis, and a crisis of faith (because why settle for just one?), I spend a lot of time reflecting on my younger self: “I used to make fun of broke, middle-aged, divorced men living in their parents’ basements, talking to strangers on the internet without pants on.” Fast forward 25 years, and life has a funny way of making you the punchline. But I absolutely love sharing these stories and it brings me such joy to hearing people having a little laugh along the way.
