Patricia's Music

Patricia Mitchell was a professionally trained actress. First receiving a
State Championship in Children's Story Telling at the age of 15; shortly
after, attending American Musical School of Arts; a Boarding school where
she took classes daily and performed to sold out crowds nightly. It's
there where she became a member of the Young Americans, whom toured the
USA with legendary acts such as Liberace.
She's worked with the following renowned Acting Coaches, Director's,
Teachers and Professor's: Sandra Seacat, Sidney Pollack, Christopher
Reeves, Stella Adler, David Feldshur, Patrick Quagliano, David Gideon,
Erma Sandrey, Marsha Hoffnik, Steve Kanee, Gene Frankel, James Malcolm, Al
Hubbs, and Milton Anderson.
Patricia also received Classical Training under the direction of Diane
Devlin, (Dame Sybil Thorndike's granddaughter) and celebrated theatrical
critic Jon Lahr, at Kings College in Great Britain.
There she also received a rare four day workshop with Master Marcel
Marceau.
In the mid-nineties while attending a private dinner party with friends,
and after one of Ms Mitchell's insightful interpretations of the meta-physical
world, the whole table laughed, Robert Shaye (Creator of New
Line Cinema) & Coco Brown (private Investor) said
"Now that's what we should do!!! Instead of investing our money into the
next film project, we should hire a couple of camera guys to follow
Patricia and catch her speaking candidly, it would be sheer entertainment,
delightful and an absolute success." Thus, Reality TV was born.
(In Patricia's own words)
"The guy's were hired and the camera crew followed me for one week in my
very fast life in New York City. I saw the video & was horrified. It never
became of anything, (Thank-God) but the seed of Reality TV was born.... To name
one of so many eventful evenings."
