Theatrical Acting

"Nikiya comes to set every day with a deep knowledge of her character. She has unbelievable range – often seamlessly gliding from hilarious to devastating to sweet.

She is an incredibly generous actor to play with in a scene and an absolute joy to direct. Every action is precise, beautiful, thoughtful and relentlessly interesting. It's been a wonderful privilege to work with her and I can't wait to work with her in the future."

"Nikiya is an extremely talented actress and comedian. In a production for my company, she played four very different characters in rapid succession (representing a huge emotional range), and brought each to life beautifully. She is eminently directable, and a pleasure to work with start to finish. She's communicative, reliable, and a total professional."
