Peter The Great

It takes a lot to make me laugh. And one man who can make me laugh — a lot — is Peter Searles (above). I last saw one of his one-man shows many years ago. And the first time I saw him was when I was camping at an arts festival with my kids back in the 1990s. He was so funny that we still laugh when talking about it now...

By complete chance, I met Peter again, for the first time in a decade, when I was helping out with the music at an end-of-term show at Crisis (the charity for homeless people) in London... and he was helping out with the drama.

He's still on the road and I (and my kids... now grown-up) are buying tickets to see him again. I would advise you that if you have any sense of humour, you should do the same.
