If you
could go back into the past and do one
thing over,
what would
it be?
"I wouldn't want to do that. Things happen to you for a reason, and
that's what shapes who you are. If you go back and make those things
good,
you don't want to lose that experience."

Unreality
TV.. Don't ask
Thorsten Kaye
Ian about
SURVIVOR because the actor's not a fan.
"Reality TV, by definition, can't be that. It has lighting and there's
a crew. A slice of life [is] when you watch the news and you see a man
shooting people from a tower. That's reality TV. To me, SURVIVOR is
like
watching somebody who bought a hammer, nails and some wood and tries to
build a cabin. I like to see skillful players who make me forget that
they're
working."

Thorsten
Kaye
comparing
his past life as
ONE LIFE TO
LIVE's Patrick to his current role on PC:
"On ONE LIFE TO LIVE, I don't know if the studio was smaller or the
egos were bigger; maybe it was a combination of things. But
at
PC
coming to work is fun. The scripts aren't great every day;
they're
not supposed to be, they can't be. There's no way. And our
performances
can't be great every day. But as a whole, I like coming in
knowing
nobody's ego is bigger than mine."

Mad Libs ...Truthfully, the
only downside to
adlibbing comes
when something airs that alters a story.
"The name 'Margaret' was a
combination
of me and the writers," explains ONE LIFE TO LIVE'S Thorsten Kaye
Patrick
of his character's pet name for Marty. "The only problem is that now we
have Maggie the nun," he chuckles, "and Maggie is also short for
Margaret."

What has
your character
done that you
wouldn't do?
Thorsten Kaye says: "I would never be with a married woman. If
somebody's
made that kind of commitment, it's over. And if I get hurt by a woman,
I'd probably move on to something else. I'd leave town."

We will
rock you: When Thorsten Kaye (Patrick) pops in a CD, he favors rock and
roll from the '70's and '80's.
"I
like Styx, Journey, Boston and Queen," he says. "There were a lot of
great groups in that era. The bands I like now - Blues Traveler and
Hootie and the Blowfish - sound like they're from the seventies, with
string guitars. " Kaye laughingly adds, "I don't spend money on
clothes. I spend it on music., my motorcycle and friends. I bought one
pair of jeans in the last five years."

What
attracts fans to Patrick?
Thorsten
Kaye says: "He's not too pretty, he's not rich and he's got
human
problems. He's trying to get back to what things were maybe
15
or 20 years ago in the old country. Language. Long sentences and
expressing his passion. Not holding back."
