Patrick Gorman

Brave and Strong and True

Patrick Gorman became an official member of Summer Stage in 1980 but remembers hanging around earlier summers with his sister, Chris, and her husband, Dennis Bloh. Pat embraced the technical side of theatre and preferred to work backstage and in the control booth. After graduating from Monsignor Bonner High School and Temple University, Pat worked in various careers and eventually ended up out west, raising three children who have already embraced the magic of performing on stage. I hope you enjoy our conversation, so come along and have some fun. . .
We all have stories to tell, and they can be heard here.
