Patricia Porter

Patricia is an actor, writer, and stand-up comedian originally from Hawaii.  She currently lives in Southern California and cleverly passes herself off as an assistant during the day.  In the evenings however, you can find her performing comedy at various venues around Los Angeles including The Ice House in Pasadena and The Improv in Hollywood.

 While growing up Patricia was very shy and reserved.  It was a period of time her family likes to refer to as the “good old days”.  But she always had a burning desire to express herself.  And this led her to get involved in performing in any capacity she could...church plays, on-camera classes, theatre, talent competitions, and even television production courses where she was allowed to act as a news anchor.  It was at a talent competition held in Los Angeles where her comedy monologue invoked welcomed laughter from the judges.  It was a feeling she wouldn’t forget…and the beginning of her budding interest in comedy.  She won runner-up for her “Comedy Monologue” and moved to Los Angeles shortly after.  Her comedy is engaging and smart.  And her observations about life are peppered with equal parts cynicism and sarcasm. 

 Since arriving in Los Angeles she has also studied acting at the Howard Fine Acting Studio and improvisation at The Groundlings.  In her spare time you can find her creating shorts with her digital camcorder, working out, playing volleyball, and listening to Greek language CD's….because that’s how she rolls.
