PODCAST: Everything had to be different for Patricia Goduto

Patricia Goduto (37) was on stage in major Stage Entertainment shows early this century when an old childhood trauma played up and plunged her into a years-long psychosis. Her life changed irrevocably, she became addicted to drugs and alcohol and was declared incurable by her practitioners. Now she has been back on stage for several years, cured of her addictions and in good spirits.

In this podcast, she talks about the difficult years behind her, which were also captured in the impressive documentary 'DIS is Patricia', which Jessica Villerius made for NCRV in 2009 about her life. Above all, she talks about her show 'Code Red', which she is currently selling to theatres. As an independent producer of her own autobiographical theatre.

It's a conversation about courage and perseverance. Something we all need at times in these dark times for the arts.
