Peter Rogers is an improv performer who works primarily with The Hideout Theatre.

History

Prior to 2000, Peter's only experience with improv had been a number of improv games in high-school theater class, a trip to see Second City in Chicago, and an absolutely terrifying batch of improv games once in college. Peter saw his first improv show in Austin after getting a free ticket to a ComedySportz show at Northcross Mall from a comedy defensive driving class. After that, he saw many more improv shows in town, and then he took the Hideout's first set of improv classes, from Shana Merlin, between 2000 and 2001. After that, Peter joined First Round Draft, the troupe that formed from the first batch of Hideout students. He left improv from 2004-2007, and then returned to do more shows, primarily at the Hideout.
