Nick Cordero, Bullets Over Broadway - Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Musical
There's a lot happening at the moment, but I'm so thrilled! I was watching the announcement live this morning. I had decided that I needed to sleep, but then my eyes popped open at 8:15 and I decided that was fate telling me to tune in. This is validation, certainly. It's been a crazy ride, this Bullets experience- a joyful, crazy ride. It's remarkable to think hat not long ago I was a struggling actor and considering other options. I was 35 and loved doing this, but I wanted some solidarity so I was taking real estate course. This show was fate pulling me back. It's an amazing role and amazing gift I'm so grateful to Woody, and Susan and everyone for the amazing opportunity. My day is filled with appointments, but hopefully I'll get to celebrate with the cast after the show tonight!
