Description

A tornado of a show, brilliantly realised by actor Glenn McGivern with a terrific soundtrack and superb illustrations by Fergus Wachala-Kelly. Peter. Saint, disciple, martyr, holder of the keys to heaven. But also a working rural fisherman. An ordinary man, called to do extraordinary things. At Joppa, waiting to set sail for new adventures, contemplating his recent past and his encounters with Jesus. What did it all mean? What does 'do not call anything impure that God has made clean' mean? Will Peter ever reach that farther shore? Or is there always another shore beyond it?

A brilliantly written play taking us through St Peter's journey as a disciple of Jesus. An enthralling performance by Glenn McGivern who drew me into the story from the beginning and kept me engaged throughout. There's not many shows I'd like to see for a second time but I would most definitely go to see again and again and again. Well done Glenn, your performance was absolutely outstanding and this was my favourite show by far of all those I visited at the Fringe.
