Patreshettarlini Adams

Patreshettarlini Adams (Resident Stage Manager/AEA) has been the production stage manager at The Wilma Theater since the theater made its new home on the Avenue of the Arts in 1996.  She has captained all but three productions in her tenure here and is very happy to be a part of the Philadelphia theater community. “Pat” is celebrating two milestones this year -- season #15 at the fabulous Wilma and her 20th anniversary as an Equity stage manager! Prior to her coming home to Philly, Pat was stage manager at the Tony Award winning Crossroads Theatre in New Brunswick, NJ.  In past years, Pat has worked the National Black Arts Festival in Atlanta, GA and the National Black Theater Festival in Winston-Salem, NC. When not at the Wilma, she has found herself traveling the world with critically-acclaimed dance company Noche Flamenca! Most recently, she is using all her free time to spoil her grandson, Isaiah. God Is Good!
