Admin

Through no fault of his own, Peter White was born a straight white male. Lots of people hate straight white males. Should they? Do they deserve it? This bold, honest and hilarious debut show tackles race, gender and sexuality in a way that few comics would ever dare. Through careful observation and real life experience Peter navigates his place in today's ever changing social landscape. This isn't a men's rights rally, so don't come expecting that! As seen on Comedy Central's Live at the Comedy Store. 'People adore Peter White!' (Coast, Canada).
