Patricia Mcdonald
Hey ! I’m Patricia. I love to act whether it’s on stage or in front of a camera or behind a microphone, it is easily my favourite thing to do. I am a confident, bubbly, passionate and easy going individual… who is also a bit of a drama Queen ! I have performed in many shows and I hope to perform in many more. I am a member of the Northern Irish School of Music and Theatre, NISMAT has allowed me to perform in many of their shows ranging from Legally Blonde to Hairspray. I always strive to put 100% effort into my characters and I hope one day to become a world wide renowned actress, it’s my dream ! I think I can easily say my life revolves around acting and I wouldn’t have it any other way !
