 P Patrick Hurley

Patrick Hurley- Patrick is so excited to be working again! Even if you can’t see him…it has always been a dream of his to be a voice…offstage…in the darkness. He is very proud of his previous voice work which includes leaving messages on people’s voice mail and talking on the phone.  Patrick was recently seen in Colorado Stages production of the Wacky World of Christopher Durang and is currently understudying all three of the women’s roles in this production.  Most recently Patrick was first runner up for the role of Prior in Angels in America and wasn’t even considered for the role of Vera in Mame.
