Welcome to the North America Home Page of English playwright Peter Gordon.
His stage plays are performed world-wide and he is particularly well known for his trilogy of whodunnit spoofs featuring the inept 'Inspector Pratt'.

The licensing of Peter's plays in USA and Canada are managed by Dramatists Play Service in New York. The 'Inspector Pratt' trilogy are featured in their on-line catalogue, but Peter's other plays can also be licensed by them. 

If you would like to contact Dramatists Play Service to arrange reading copies, order plays, or appply for a performance license, please access their website below. 

This North American Home Page was set up in response to the increasing popularity of Peter's stage plays in the USA and Canada. Of particular interest are the 'Inspector Pratt, trilogy.
