LOADING IN A CHRISTMAS CAROL WITH WEST VIRGINIA PUBLIC THEATRE

Pat curates opportunities that not only encourage an imaginative and collaborative process, but that inspire community members to gather together to create meaning through art. For Pat, theatre is a pathway to possibility, transforming relationships with ourselves, each other, and the world around us."

"Arguably the largest and most important part of [Mill Mountain Theatre's] community engagement initiatives each year is our summer touring production... Pat served as tour manager for our 2019 summer touring production of A Peter Rabbit Tale. Having this pivotal role as tour manager, Pat was responsible for visiting each tour site to gather information, connecting with our contacts at each location, and then leading the entire company in traveling to each performance venue. And he did so with grace, positivity, and humor. Pat is a confident, knowledgeable, and sturdy leader who also has a high emotional intelligence, able to navigate group dynamics and unify his team of actors, technicians, and interns."

Patrick approaches projects with pragmatism, setting goals and clear expectations. Challenges are approached through creative problem-solving, with the understanding that new problems often need new solutions. Patrick, above anyone else I know, has a resilient ability to work with others. His patience runs the gamut from working with those who are difficult or may be struggling to those who need a calming influence to appease their anxieties and fears. I would hire Patrick on any project and to work with any team, knowing he is a leader and a uniting force. I should also add that Pat is a fun person with which to work, blending ease and humor into every moment."
