Patricia Galván

Patricia was born in Jerez into a Mormon family and grew up between her hometown and the American Naval Base in Rota, a mix of contexts that shaped her distinctive perspective as a comedian and actress. That religious influence was part of her early years, although today she defines herself through a spirituality not linked to any religion. From an early age, she trained in acting and musical theatre in Seville and Madrid. At 19, she began working with the theatre companies Tántrico Teatro and Scena Difusio, and later directed and adapted the musical Hairspray (2011), combining this work with arts education. Her arrival in stand-up was marked by the prejudices of an industry traditionally dominated by men, an experience she turned into an essential part of her stage voice. Today, she is one of Spain’s most promising comedians and the first Spanish female comedian to perform in the United States. In 2024, she premiered Hardcore on Madrid’s Gran Vía, consolidating her national profile.
