Biography

Theatre

Born in Toronto in 1973, Pettle is a graduate of the National Theatre School of Canada's (NTS) playwriting program. He received a BA in theatre from Dalhousie University in 1994.[1]

His first play, Therac 25 (1995), is autobiographical – Pettle received extensive treatment for thyroid cancer in the early 1990s.[2] It stages a developing romance in the halls of a cancer treatment unit. His next drama, Zadie's Shoes (2000), is one of the few Canadian plays to successfully transfer from a medium-size house (The Factory Theatre) to the commercial Winter Garden Theatre. It has been produced across Canada as well as in the US and the UK.[3]

Zadie's Shoes, Sunday Father and Therac 25 have all been nominated for Dora Awards for best new play.[1]

Television and radio

In 2006, Pettle began his move towards television writing, penning an original pilot Clean for Ilana Frank and Thump Inc (now ICF Films).[4] He has since worked on several Canadian and American television series, including Combat Hospital, King, Rookie Blue, X Company, and Saving Hope.[5] He was nominated a Gemini Award in 2010 for a Rookie Blue episode entitled "Big Nickel," co-written with Morwyn Brebner.[6] He is credited as a co-producer on King and executive producer on Saving Hope.

Pettle is also co-creator and head writer of the miniseries Afghanada, heard on CBC Radio.[7]

Personal life

He is married to Patricia Fagan.[8] They have two children, Alice and Lev Pettle. As a teen, Pettle was a well-known break dancer with the street name "Kid Quik".
