Name: Pat Moonie

Character you are playing in Abigail/1702: John Brown (that’s not my real name but that is only revealed later in the play)

Nickname growing up: Chook

Pizza Topping of choice: Margherita

Back to the Future I, II or III: 1 all the way (That is the correct answer, you may continue)

Acting Hero: I don’t have just one. I just like good acting, whether it’s on stage, film or even an ad. So I can’t pinpoint it to one person or one performance.

Favourite theatre experience/show you’ve seen? My first play I ever did. It was in Canberra in 2010 and I played a washed up, alcoholic soap star that suffered from friendly hallucinations.

Nailing the accent for the show, excited or shitting yourself? Excited!! Love doing accent work and plan on trying it out on strangers, that’s the ultimate test!!!

What are most looking forward heading into the production? Being transported back to 1702. It is such a completely different world, so much was not known at that time and could only be imagined. Trying to rap my head around the fact that not all of the country I live in had been settled and was still wild and unknown is a crazy thing. Thinking witches were a real and present danger and the devil could come get you at any second is something I’m looking forward to playing with. Let’s just hope I have said my prayers!!!
