Patrick Firme

Instructor

Patrick has been studying and performing improv since 2015. He graduated from The Hideout Theatre in Austin, Texas, where he was trained in narrative improvisation. He further studied at Coldtowne Theatre, and learned sketch comedy at The Fallout Theatre. His former troupe, Lazer Squid, had a monthly show at Coldtowne, and he also performed in the 2018 Austin Sketch Fest with another former sketch group, Aglet Sketch Comedy. Patrick is excited to share his love for improv in New Mexico, both as a teacher and performer. He currently performs as a member of The Faculty Lounge.

Patrick has been performing onstage since he was in 5th grade. He has a BA in Theatre from Beloit College, where he performed in several mainstage productions and directed a full length play. Patrick is originally from Indiana and believes that there is no better place to watch a basketball game than a high school gym in his home state.
