Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company
Cody recently completed a run at Woolly Mammoth
in a production of Bruce Norris's new play Clybourne Park. The show was a major success, becoming the highest grossing
play in Woolly Mammoth's thirty year history.
“In the smashing ensemble work of "Clybourne Park," Woolly offers up one of its feistiest, funniest evenings in years… Comedy of this accomplished order requires the casting of commensurate talent…It's tough to know whom to single out…but Nickell, in a pair of droll turns, is revealed here as a true standout player.” –Peter Marks, Washington Post
“As if born to work the mercilessly taut and clever script, the ensemble cast is gloriously simpatico with one another and Norris' subversive sense of humor. Conquering two very different and complex roles is Cody Nickell who never lets his apt portrayals fall into caricature.”-Kate Wingfield, Metro Weekly
“Cody Nickell’s performances as Lindner and Steve have neurotic touches, reminding me of Michael Stuhlbarg – his lines loop over each other, distinct and self-assured, yet grounded in egotism.”-Phil Calabro, DC Theater Scene
“Though every actor in the Woolly Mammoth’s exhilarating production is superb, Cody Nickell--as the twit Karl in the first half and boob Steve in the second--stands out among the men.”- Charles R. Larson, CounterPunch.org Cody is thrilled to announce
his nomination for a Helen Hayes Award for his work in Arcadia at the Folger Theater. The show received eight nominations
in total, including Outstanding Production. |
