The play's the thing... 


Welcome to the Stage section. Here you'll find details of most of the productions Peth has worked in, starting with Barney Blue-eyes at the age of 8. Plot summaries, cast and production details, and as many reviews and pics I could find on the Net.
 
Thanks to Kathleen Riley for the detailed biography and stage chronology of Peth compiled by her on Peth's official website.  This section is based mostly on the stage chronology.
