That's fantastic
Nice to see local artists hitting the big time (even if we don't know them, we can claim we do).The folks at Peninsula Youth Theatre have pointed out that a PYT alumnus is making his off-Broadway debut. Nick Spangler joined the cast of "The Fantasticks" earlier this fall, playing The Mute and understudying the role of Matt. The show is playing at the Snapple Theater Center, which I hope is more beautiful than its creepy corporate name.
Before debuting off-Broadway, Nick did many shows around here, working with such South Bay groups as West Valley Light Opera and Sunnyvale Community Players. His resume also says he can walk on his hands and do lasso tricks. And you wonder why I love the theater.

Nick was the in the production of Forever Plaid with WVLO that I music directed and served as on-stage pianist. His considerable talent was obvious from the second he took the stage at his audition, as was his admirable work ethic throughout rehearsals/performances. Even more, Nick was a true pleasure to work with and along with the other three great guys in the cast (Tim, Michael, and Robin), helped to make that production one of my all-time favorites productions in which I took part. It's great to see such a genuinely nice guy and truly talented actor/singer succeed in the business. He deserves it!
