Testimonials for Peter Rowsthorn
"Peter
Rowsthorn was worth every penny and it was an honour to have him at our event.
What a star performer. His performance was outstanding, side-splittingly
funny and relevant to the guests. You can be absolutely assured that he’d be
great to book for any NZ event. What impressed me about Peter is that he
was at ease with our members and was prepared to sit, chat and have his photo
taken with attendees. What a pleasant, friendly person – clearly of star
quality though!"

Zealand Food & Grocery Council
"I thought
Peter got function off to a great start and had the room for the length of his
intro - he then proceeded to manage our speakers in a very professional manner.
Nedlands Rugby would have no problems recommending Peter for future
functions."

"Peter was fabulous.
From the minute he entered the room he was funny, felt like he was a
mate. He and Sami had the most fantastic chemistry and he really made the
night outstanding. He was happy to do more than just MC and I was most
impressed by the fact that he was just one of us, having a good time. The
atmosphere was electric."

Peter Rowsthorn's Biography
Peter Rowsthorn is a high energy, fast paced standup comedian one minute and a measured character actor the next. A masterful MC of corporate and private functions, he has been performing his slick & blistering stand up for three decades.
Most recently, Peter has appeared regularly on "Thank God You're Here" series 1, 2, 3 and 4, popped up on "Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Generation" and can currently be seen hosting the delightful “Can We Help” on the ABC on Friday nights. But Peter is probably still best known as long-suffering husband and pants-man Brett Craig on “Kath & Kim”.
Peter’s career really took off in 1988, when he was offered roles in The Comedy Company, Fast Forward and The Big Gig, all in the same week. He chose The Comedy Company and spent the next two seasons with the show. After performing in the feature film Crackers, he became a semi-regular on Hey Hey, It’s Saturday and hosted the Red Faces spin-off Gonged But Not Forgotten. He was also the host of Foxtel’s Sunday Roast for two seasons.
He also appeared as Warren Cronkshonk
in hospital spoof Let The Blood Run Free and recently made several appearances
on the improvised comedy series Thank God You're Here and is the host of 'Can
We Help?' on ABC TV.
He is one of Australia’s most experienced stand up comics performing in just
about every stand up room in the country as well as delighting numerous
corporate clients. He is also very, very funny.
