Patrick is co-artistic director and founding member of O'Punksky's. Essentially an actor he also designs, directs, produces, teaches, builds sets, [this web site] etc etc...... Patrick met Maeliosa Stafford at the Crossroads Theatre in Sydney's Darlinghurst in late 1989 and accepted his offer to join the cast of Observe the Sons of Ulster Marching Towards the Somme. There was a tiny budget so Patrick also volunteered to design the show. The production was a small triumph and O'Punksky's theatre was born. In 1990 Patrick played Malcolm Scrawdyke in O'Punksky's next production, Little Malcolm and His Struggle Against the Eunuchs (chosen for its long title), also directed by Maeliosa. Patrick again took on the task of designer and a creative partnership was galvanized.
