MY SPACE
“Nicky is an unbelievable talent. She is original, confident and extremely easy to work with. I expect huge things for her”
–Jessica Kirson, Comedienne/Producer
"So many comics forget that the show should be fun for the audience. Not Nicky. Her energy, passion, and enthusiasm creates a show that's the equivalent of a comedy party. Her goal is perfectly clear: a good time should be had by all!" - Jim Medrinos, Producer/NEW YORK UNDERGROUND COMEDY FESTIVAL
"Nicky made me laugh so hard, I thought I ruptured my spleen. From her first joke to her last, I was spellbound by her witty, hilarious and high energy brand of humor and kept wanting more. Nicky makes our productions ultra successful and she steals the shows with her charm and wit everytime"
–Bernie Furshpan, NY HYSTERICAL SOCIETY
"T
here are very few Comedienne/Actresses who solely do the art of Stand-Up & Acting with such a passion and love for it with no other agenda than to bring down the house and she is such a performer. In my experience with Nicky she has exemplified & distinguished herself and displayed a great degree of versatility, initiative and dedication to the entertainment business, in all areas of the Comedy Business and thru her efforts, she has performed with distinction and devotion for the art and is sure to be a Powerhouse Female in the Comedy World and a Superstar sure to knock down more barriers & glass ceilings for women that exist in the comedy business" -Julio Ray, COMEDY PIE
