Sweetwood Creative CCO and Creativity In Captivity Podcast Host Pat Hazell.

Showtime declared Pat Hazell one of the five funniest people in America. His 25 years of experience as a writer, producer and director have made him a go-to guy for new American theater. Pat is one of the original writers for NBC’s Seinfeld, a Tonight Show veteran, a critically acclaimed playwright and a contributing commentator to National Public Radio. He is recognized for his genuinely funny Americana humor and his salute to nostalgia. His podcast "Creatvity In Captivity" he interviews the top creative people on the planet, from every discipline. (I'm on Season 4, episode 15, btw.) Pat's new show "Permanent Record" opens in Marshall, Texas at Memorial Hall. Click here and make the trip, Texans! As the Chief Creative Officer of Sweetwood Creative, he is responsible for the national tours of five original productions: Bunk Bed Brothers, Nashville Backstage, The Wonder Bread Years, My Funny Valentine and A Kodachrome Christmas. Pat is currently collaborating on a musical adaptation of his original play Grounded For Life. However, his greatest accomplishment is being the father of two of the brightest shining stars in the universe, Tucker and Keaton.   EVENTS & COURSES My next Commercial Directing Bootcamp is April 22nd, 2023 in Los Angeles is SOLD OUT.
