Young Sully: Stories from an Irish-American Youth
In his debut one-man show, Patrick O'Sullivan gives a
comedic and heartfelt reflection of his experiences growing up in the Irish immigrant culture of the San Francisco Bay Area, featuring remarkable and outlandish tales of everyone from his father (former Premier League soccer player Paddy Sullivan) to local folk hero Johnny Foley (namesake of the downtown pub).
NOTE: It is advised you buy a drink at the bar before the show and bring it to your seat, as we will be toasting these characters in this trip down memory lane!
Patrick O'Sullivan is the creator of the hit stage shows All About Walken: The Impersonators of Christopher Walken and All About Jack: The Impersonators of Jack Nicholson that have toured all over the U.S. In 2011, you can see him as Jim Carrey's flashback father in the film Mr. Popper's Penguins and starring as Gary Busey in the Los Angeles production of the national stage sensation Point Break Live! He has also been seen on Comedy Central, Showtime, Fox, and CBS shows, performs stand-up comedy at the world famous Hollywood Improv and The Comedy Store, and is a writer/performer for the popular internet channel Totally Sketch. He produced a documentary on Lenny Bruce as a labor of love and the film Looking for Lenny will have its world premiere in Paris this year. This former rock vocalist, radio and roller rink disc jockey, and scoreboard operator for the S.F. Giants and 49ers is really just a kid from the wrong side of the tracks with a story to tell.
"an act of absurd genius." - L.A. Times (on Patrick O'Sullivan's "All About Walken")
"O'Sullivan - in that Jim Carrey way, in alternating fits of sardonic genius and footstomping hambone." - Martini Republic (on Patrick in "Shrinks")
"O'Sullivan stands out." - Comedy L.A. (on Patrick in "Fluffy Bunnies in a Field of Daisies")
