Hi, iam Brenda Liberti, Hope you’re doing good!

Hey there! I recently played Patrick Bateman in a production of American Psycho, and let me tell you - it was an experience like no other! It was intense, to say the least. I mean, talk about a challenge - trying to capture the essence of such a complex character? No easy feat. But I’m so glad I took it on; it really pushed me out of my comfort zone and made me grow as an actor. Plus, the audience reaction was awesome - they were totally into it! All in all, playing Patrick Bateman was an unforgettable experience that I wouldn’t trade for anything.
