Trying to Break A Leg

Starring Patrick Combs



Event Flyer

"Combs has his storytelling down to an art," TimeOut New York.

"Combs is a master storyteller," The Irish Times.

"This guy's got star power," Variety magazine.

"Trying to Break a Leg" is an extraordinary one-person theater play starring the incomparable storyteller Patrick Combs, renowned for his previous smash-hit, "Man 1, Bank 0." This new production is a gripping, emotional rollercoaster that chronicles Patrick's relentless pursuit of his dream in the face of insurmountable odds.

   Patrick bares his soul as he recounts his tumultuous journey to create his first solo theater show. Over the course of a year, he faces countless failures, self-doubt, and the relentless temptation to give up. The narrative is a riveting blend of brutal honesty, humor, and deep emotional resonance.

   As Patrick's struggles intensify, the audience is taken on a heart-wrenching ride through the highs and lows of artistic pursuit. Yet, amidst the despair, a powerful theme emerges — the unyielding determination of the human spirit and the mysterious assistance of what might be called an unseen hand.

It’s a lesson in the resilience of the human spirit and a reminder that sometimes, it’s the journey, not the destination, that truly matters.

 The black box venue was the perfect size to see this show but I hope it continues to run in other locations.

 Awesome show! Patrick's mastery shines through not just his performance but the structure of his show and it's powerful message. Best one-person show I've seen to date, and I've seen a few! Chris Howard

   Interesting concept. Well executed. Never give up was a great message that fit well with motivational speaking.

How did you like the event?

 It sounds like Patrick's friends in the audience really enjoyed the content, but as a stranger, I found myself wondering where I would trim the monologue. I really enjoyed the clips I saw of "Man 1, Bank 0," and would have loved to see the polished storytelling, and the suspense and intrigue that earned Patrick awards at the SF Fringe Festival and to land a performance at HBO.
