KIYANOSH SAHEBI

PETER GLEESON
Absolute shambles of a man, Peter Gleeson has been writing and performing comedy for roughly the lifespan of a large dog and bumbling around on Earth for roughly half the lifespan of an overweight, diabetic human. As a kid, Peter found the real world a bit dull. He spent most of his childhood creating his own worlds, a hobby he’s yet to grow out of. Despite being reasonably intelligent and knowing quite a few big words, Peter’s comedy leans toward the silly. A surreal frolic through the thoughts of a man who enjoys a bubble bath while listening to death metal. A chaotic jigsaw puzzle assembled with pieces from five different puzzles and a few Lego bricks held together with chewing gum and spit. He has performed multiple solo shows in the Sydney Fringe and Sydney Comedy festivals, written and performed sketch comedy, and written for and been a team captain in a comedy quiz show. If you like your comedy ridiculous with a touch of anarchy, fill your auditory and visual sense receptors with a bit of Pete’s comedy.
