PAT FLICKER ADDISS
Producer, 2nd ACT
Pat had a dream, but had to provide for 3 children and their education. She started Pat Addiss Enterprises, a
promotions company that provided every conceivable widget with a company logo. At that point there were
few women in the industry. She ran it for 30 years and gave it to her daughter Wendy. This left her free to
change careers and be the Broadway Producer that she had always imagined.
Necessity is the Mother of Reinvention — How does a woman break into the tough world of show business
as a Broadway producer at an age when most are looking to retire? Hear Broadway producer Pat Addiss tell her gutsy story
of breaking into the industry after 30 years of running her own promotions company.
2ND ACT is a monthly storytelling series featuring ordinary people sharing the extraordinary things they are doing in the
2ND (half ) ACT of their lives! Inspirational, experiential and comical, these after-50 life stories will ignite your own imagina-
tion to join the growing community of 2ND ACTers! Pat Flicker Addiss is a native New Yorker. Went to Finch , an all woman’s
college in NYC where she graduated in honors in Costume Design and Merchandising.
Pat has produced over 20 shows and musicals. Her proudest is the most recent Desperate Measures which is playing in
theatres across the country! Currently in Winter Park , Florida
Pat strongly believes in giving back, mentoring and helping women over 50 Reinvent themselves!
