WHAT TWO ITEMS DO YOU BRING? My two dogs!

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DIRECTING AT THAC? This will be my ninth season!

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST? Life, warm sunshine, gardening, photography, color, dancing, I love directing and choreographing all theater! I love knowing that I am a small part of sustaining this amazing art form and hopefully inspiring other people in the process.

WHAT ARE THE WORST HABITS AN ACTOR/ACTRESS CAN DEVELOP? Forgetting to have fun. Settling.

HOW DO WE GET A ROLE WITH NICK SUGAR? Audition and keep auditioning. Everyone is not right for every show and when people audition and come to call backs I am also thinking about casting shows in the season ahead. Keep studying and strive to be a better artist. Do something every day that is feeding your art and spirit!

WHO/WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST INSPIRATION? I draw inspiration from the world around me and the art and talent from the people who influence me in a positive way.

CAN WE FOLLOW YOU? FB? TWITTER? My website is NickSugar.com and you can find out about all my theater projects, news and photos.

WHY SEE ANYTHING GOES? The music alone is worth coming to see Anything Goes! It is a fantastic score by Cole Porter. Plus it is filled with great comedy and the cast is full of talented artists! You will not be able to resist tapping along and cheering our live band!
