WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"I take it you know the feeling of being able to really relax back in your seat and enjoy when watching a performance. That is exactly what always happens when watching Nina ... she is already impressive enough with her big voice, but above all, she always touches the right chord in her interpretation."
Caroline Frank (Actor/Director)
