Michael Patrick

Michael Patrick was born and raised in Belfast, where he still lives today. In primary 6, he wrote a story of the nativity from the donkey’s perspective and his teacher told his mother that he was going to be a writer. He then went off to study Physics at Cambridge University.

Michael usually works as an actor across the UK and Ireland. My Left Nut is the (mostly) true story of a period in his teenage years. Some names have been changed to protect the identities of his friends, but most of the genuinely ridiculous events are factual.

As an actor he has worked with the Lyric Theatre Belfast, The Abbey Theatre Dublin, Northern Ireland Opera, The Royal Shakespeare Company and has appeared on Game of Thrones, Krypton, Death and Nightingales, and Soft Border Patrol.
