Patrick began his theatrical career in 1999 in New York City, performing in the smash Off Broadway improvisation comedy "Tony n Tina's Wedding". He performed contractually as Tina's ex-boyfriend, Michael Just, "crashing" the wedding in over 900 shows on Times Square, and on two tours with the Company in Japan. Building a strong acting technique and craft "on the boards" of theatres in New York City has been the most fortunate and beloved gift in Patrick's career.Patrick performed in leading roles in two World Premier Off-Broadway plays- "Waiting for My Man" written by Tony DiMurro ("The Coyote Bleeds"), directed by Anthony Patellis, and "Willie B. Came Into the Sun" (an Onassis Foundation Honourable Mention recipient), written by Jean Sterrett and directed by Robert Kalfin (founding Artistic Director of Chelsea Repertory).Patrick has a BA in Fine Art, working in various mediums specifically painting and drawing. He loves to collect and read unique old books of any genre for the expansion of his mind and personal library. He also avidly collects old vinyl records to satisfy his deep appreciation for music and musicians of any style and era.Patrick is extremely grateful to Herbert Berghof Studios in NYC, where, as an individual, he found the support and encouragement for learning the craft of acting and its development through the freedoms of artistic expression found there. He is forever indebted to Herbert Berghof Studios and to his first instructor at HB, Jim Boerlin. He is also extremely grateful for the coaching of Maggie Flanigan in NYC and Iris Klein in Los Angeles.He typically resides somewhere between Heaven and Earth, mistakenly going to Hell at times (?), depending on his interpretation of the map in question, time constraints, and his use of the Light source to read it, or lack thereof.
