Peter Carreg
- Actor
Peter Carreg of Anglo Welsh descent, worked extensively in
theatre and film with a few rare roles on television. His career began
in the 1950s as a child actor in London, appearing in a number of post
war B films. Although he preferred drama, he was often to be found on
stage in musical theatre which revealed a fine singing voice. He didn't
solely work as an actor as there were periods of complete contrast e.g.
beginning training for the priesthood and a spell in the army medical
corps. All good experience for later roles as he saw it. Diagnosis of a
crippling illness in 2007 reduced his ability to perform or even travel
and so he reluctantly retired to spend his remaining time as an artist
and writer.
