streetcar named desire
Nick Narcisi is more predatory hawk than raging bull, swooping down on Blanche with sharp talons. Lean and good-looking, Narcisi embodies the touch of grace that’s too often missing from portrayals of Stanley (though that was certainly key to the performance delivered by the young actor who originated the role and immortalized it on film, Marlon Brando).

Sex with Strangers
Narcisi evinces the blithe, good-humored charm and confidence of an overgrown frat boy accustomed to getting what he wants; he’s even better on those rare occasions in this play when he doesn’t.

Tuck Everlasting
Narcisi absolutely owns “Time,” the show’s heartbreaking high point, as he sings about how his family abandoned him.

Particularly delightful is Nick Narcisi’s James Watson, somehow equally believable and utterly villainous without verging on caricature.

The last days of judas iscariot
Nick Narcisi spends most of the performance in his ice-ridden dock, literally frozen from all else. When animated, his misery is so profound that he may as well be John Cusack holding a boom box over his head.
