Daryl has been actively involved in theatre since 1979 and has been writing plays since 1988. As one of Tasmania's foremost playwrights, he has written 14 one-act plays, four full-length plays and a musical. He has also written five training films, numerous revue and theatre-restaurant scripts and dialogue for a nationally syndicated cartoon strip.

One of his plays, Marching for Marco, won Daryl a Tasmania Day Award for his contribution to theatre through writing. This play was subsequently performed at the 1996 Adelaide Fringe Festival and the Antipodes Festival in Melbourne. Another two of Daryl's plays, Shenanigan's Wake and Barbecue, have attracted national interest and continue to be performed around Australia.

RECENT FEEDBACK FROM A PERFORMANCE OF SHENANIGAN'S WAKE from Peter Francis, Promotions Manager, Bridgetown Repertory Theatre Inc,Western Australia

At one performance we had the audience actually dancing on the tables....

All in all a great play. Please pass on our thanks to Daryl Peebles, and tell him how much enjoyment his script brought to both cast and audiences here in the southwest corner of Western Australia.
