Who creates the stories that shape us? And how do these stories affect the decisions we make and the limits of who we think we can be?
These questions have shaped me since I was a kid growing up in Philadelphia. Going to Quaker school, I learned to question the stories in our myths and history books and on our stages and screens. To dig deeper into the margins.
Now, as an actor, writer, and coach, I help reshape the stories we live by.
A graduate of Boston College's Presidential Scholar program, Patricia's writing projects have been developed and presented at Goodspeed, Polyphone, 54 Below, and the Philadelphia Women’s Theatre Festival. They include Sweetwater, a musical about the WASP (Women Airforce Service Pilots), the modern Irish fairy tale Learning How to Drown, and the animated Adventures of Ara.
As an actor, she has created roles in shows including Maury Yeston’s Death Takes a Holiday and Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and appeared in revivals at Lincoln Center and City Center in NYC and theaters across the country. Patricia has performed nationally with symphonies and can be heard on the cast albums for Death Takes a Holiday, Merrily We Roll Along, and The Christmas Schooner or in the PBS “Live from Lincoln Center” Carousel.
She has been a Guest Artist at NYU, Emerson, Boston College, Temple University, University of the Arts, and Sacred Heart University and a proud teaching artist for over a decade.
