Peter Hambleton

Toi Whakaari graduate Peter Hambleton has acted and directed extensively for the stage, in the process winning a number of Chapman Tripp Theatre awards (Copenhagen, The Letter Writer). On screen he has played a sizable cadre of policeman and officials, alongside Prime Ministers (Peter Fraser in TV movie Spies and Lies), priests, and a dwarf: he plays Gloin in Peter Jackson’s two-part adaptation of The Hobbit.

Peter Hambleton is at his best, infusing Charles Darwin with a huge vocational passion that transcends the limitations of his less-than-perfect health, while trying to manage the realities of a world not yet quite ready for him.
