Nicholas's production was seen by Barry Harman (lyrics and libretto) who wrote to him, “I just wanted to reiterate how much we enjoyed your production of ROMANCE/ROMANCE. I've seen many, many productions, and so often directors and or performers miss the point entirely, so each time I am watching a new production I begin watching with some trepidation. I was delighted to see how firmly both you, as a director, and your performers grasped the material and ran with it. The two leads in the first act took us on a delightful journey, and I was especially glad to see the 2nd Act being so well-limbed, by all four of the ensemble.”
Emmerich Kálmán's magnificent operetta is given the royal treatment at Ohio Light Opera in this production directed by Nicholas that reviewers called "the crown jewel of the season". Richly drawn characters and relationships, style, beauty and humor abound in this show. Be on the lookout for piggies, dream sequences, an instant cabaret, and more surprises along the way.
Nicholas directed this production at Bowling Green State University in Ohio. Psychology is in play here as terror takes on many different forms throughout the centuries, while those seeking peace must hold steadfastly to their own beliefs.
