This week, Broadway’s Patricia Phillips stops by the Stage Door! Some of Patricia‘s incredible credits include the original Broadway cast of the Secret Garden,in addition to the Broadway productions of Kinky Boots (Only WOC in the Broadway production), and the Phantom of the Opera (first POC to play Carlotta!). In addition to Broadway, Patricia is also a professor at Penn State (The luckiest students!) This week, we sit down to discuss getting the bug from an early age, dedicated theatre and music teachers who introduce us to the magic of theater at an early age, and Patricia’s time at Carnegie Mellon. We also discuss how long it takes Patricia and myself to warm up either for a performance or a reading, respectively, as well as some secret tidbits from Phantom of the Opera and colorism within the arts. We also have a great chat on ego, confidence, and arrogance and their place within the arts and mediumship, the timelessness of good technique and training, and why Phantom’s Carlotta is a fighter. As always, we’ll discuss Patricia’s reading, channeling her Mom into her performance in Phantom, and the glow-up from wearing pajamas onstage to eventually 50 lb beaded gowns. To learn more about Patricia or to inquire about training with her, check out:patriciaphillips.comInstagram: @theofficialpatriciaphillipsBook a reading with Jimmy, or learn more about mediumship:stagedoormedium.comInstagram: @stagedoormediumEditing and graphics:davidraydesign.comInstagram: @davidraydesign Watch on Instagram & YouTube
