Peter Reder

Much of his work has been concerned with history and memory, most notably the City of Dreams project and a series of site-based, promenade pieces in various museums, galleries and historic buildings in the UK and elsewhere.

His work has been seen at the Brighton Festival, Battersea Arts Centre, Traverse Theatre, Somerset House and elsewhere in the UK, and internationally at Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, Colliseum, Bucharest, Gammage Auditorium, Arizona, National Museum of Singapore, Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh, La Laboral, Spain, Vancouver Art Gallery and at Magnetic North Theatre Festival, Ottawa.

First developed as an educational project at Lewisham College, South London Gallery and the National Theatre Studio, it was subsequently re-staged in a number of cities around the world, with local participants in each location led by Reder and sound artist Tom Wallace.

The project has been seen in Geissen, Bremen, Brisbane, Singapore, and most recently at the Push Festival, Vancouver in 2011 where it received an enthusiastic public and critical response.

Guided Tour Originally shown at McEwan Hall, Edinburgh as part of the Traverse Theatre festival fringe programme and the British Council Showcase in 2005.

'[6] In Reder's guided tour the conventional narrative of the house and its wealthy, landowning inhabitants was made secondary in importance to the history of their servants and their dogs, and to a number of memories, associations and digressions.

My Russian Childhood is a solo storytelling show with music by Sean O'Hagan of The High Llamas, and has been developed at London at Battersea Arts Centre, JW3 and Rich Mix.
