PETER KENDALL CLARK
“With him we meet Peter Kendall Clark as Dr. Malatesta. All in black, with a cane and round black glasses he presents a striking image. Is he blind? No, no. The handsome and graceful Clark appears almost a gentle mockery of Marcello Mastroianni—even to the louche snap of the brim of his fedora…..Clark is also a very confident and gifted comic actor.” -Broadway World
“Clark’s puppet-master Dr. Malatesta towers over Papas (and the rest of the cast) physically, while providing a well-modulated performance that makes the most of his big, rich, robust voice.”
-Pop Life STL
“Baritone Peter Kendall Clark’s Fredrik is funny and wistful, as he tries to negotiate a mid-life crisis of which he seems blissfully unaware. The role has generally been the province of big theatrical baritones like Len Cariou and Ron Raines, and Clark could not be a better fit. He’s got projection and tonal warmth to spare.”
“Baritone Peter Kendall Clark is perfectly cast as Fredrik. Handsome and with considerable dignity he clearly and unashamedly conveys the emotional helplessness of this poor man. He brings to the role a rich, strong voice and impeccable diction.”
“Peter Kendall Clark’s Old Thompson is an astonishing achievement. His character goes through Hell, and Mr. Clark portrays it all with impressive authenticity. “Welcome home,” the second-act number in which he reels off an exhaustive list of all the changes in his world, had the staccato aggression of tracer bullets. Most impressive of all, though, was the final scene in which Thompson, forced into retirement by a stroke, wanders around the stage bewildered, drunk, and fuming with resentment over the lack of recognition for his ordeal. Mr. Clark made the character’s pain uncomfortably real. ”
Sweeney Todd, Hawaii Opera Theatre
“Clark portrays a hauntingly tragic antihero and we witness the progression of his mental collapse. In a role that demands nearly continuous singing, one of his many outstanding numbers is the spine-chilling tribute to his razors ‘My Friends.’”
As Harry Easter in Street Scene at Virginia Opera
“Baritone Peter Kendall Clark plays the despicable boss and yet has such stage presence and sings so well that I almost liked him.”

“The impressive singers of this 15-member cast — many taking more than one role — gave their all to the piece. The baritone Peter Kendall Clark brought gravity and earthy sound to Old Erich...”
“Audience favorite Peter Kendall Clark is back after having won acclaim in the Syracuse Opera’s 2014-2015 season in “Die Fledermaus” and “A Little Night Music,” and 2015-2016, “My Fair Lady.” He lives up to his radiant reputation as a convincing actor and engaging singer in the role of anti-hero Macheath, portraying the callous rogue with exceptional energy in his resonant, articulate baritone.”
