Patrick Oliver Jones

Host / Producer / Writer

Patrick grew up the only child of a single mother, only to discover later in adulthood that he actually had four half-sisters. These twists of fate have continued to follow him as he's moved from Disney World in Orlando to Jubilee! in Las Vegas, from cruise ships to national tours and biggest of all, getting married in September 2018!

Now he lives in Manhattan, doing commercials and staged readings as well as Off-Broadway productions here and there. But Patrick tends to leave the city more often than not for work in regional theaters across the country. So until he can put those suitcases away for good and enjoy that long-awaited Broadway contract, he's got his podcast to help him dream big while living small.

WHAT listeners SAY...

TAYLOR

North Carolina

The best podcast for a theatre geek or someone who does want to "make it."

ROBIN

New York

I feel like I’ve attended a graduate studies class, having listened to all of Seasons 1 and 2. I can’t wait to learn more about the industry and hear from new guests.

CARLEY

Florida

I like listening to "big named" actors and their hardships, because it's easy for me to connect with at this point in my career.

GEORGE

Texas

Every guest has the same passion as I do, and it's always great to hear ways other people look at that passion and why.
