REVIEWS

“He has an exceptional wit and gift for the delivery of it. His research of roles performed reveals a delicate melding of himself and the physical, mental, emotional and even spiritual aspects of the character, and quite a natural ability. His handling of dialogue is so mature and his sensitive nuance delivering it allows the audience to believe him without question, especially in classical work.”

- Kelly Morgan, founder of the Mint Theatre NYC

“His Carmen Ghia in The Producers, mincing and hissing across the stage, was quite unlike his fearless, swashbuckling Aramis in The Three Musketeers, intriguing with a sword and a bottle. Both of those roles stood in stark contrast to his neurotic Felix in The Odd Couple, fixating on dust and disorder and continually trying to clear his sinuses, and his Jack in The Boys Next Door, mature, caring, and emotionally drained as he struggles to keep his wards safe while simultaneously searching for a new way forward in his own life. From broadest bit to subtlest nuance, Nick’s acting is totally credible.”

- Peter Anderegg, Playwright & Screenwriter

“He is an actor of depth and great range, committed to his craft and a delight to work with.“

- Rebecca Root, star of BBC’s Boy Meets Girl

“A credit to the theatre.“

- Andrew Phillips, Baron Phillips of Sudbury OBE
