About the Show
The beloved production
Patty — inspired by the real-life experiences of celebrated American novelist Patricia Highsmith — returns to the stage for a limited engagement following a sold-out run in 2022. The play explores Highsmith’s experiences in conversion therapy, with inspiration drawn from diaries of her life released in recent years, highlighting universal themes of friendship, romance, and therapy. Instead of allowing others to try to twist her identity, Highsmith embraces her environment and connects with other patients and therapists in unexpected ways.
