Here are what others have to say about NicoloWhimsey:
“Kids are sprawling, laughing in an auditorium filled with families and children. The racing madcap antics of “The Nicolo Whimsey Show” is probably something they’ve never seen before: insane juggling, merry music, flute and musical -saw playing and character acting more outlandish than any Saturday morning cartoon. All of this is seamlessly melded into a flawless, heart-quickening unity done so fast the 45-minute set leaves parent and child breathless for more. It’s ‘environmental theatre” taken about as far to the edge as it can be for children.
As for their future, Mr. Newlin says the goal is “to continue to perform for kids and families, building on the educational value of this kind of theatre.”
~Raymond M. Lane
Special to the Washington Times.
"Once again the NicoloWhimsey Wonderful Wacky duo brought down the house, dazzled audiences of every age, color, sex and culture, and left them begging for more! Your show is a joy, your comedy outrageous. We loved every bit of it. Thank you for a happy, hilarious and zany Saturday Morning at the National."
~Kathleen M. Barry, Executive Director, National Theatre.
Washington, DC
"Combined outrageously funny historical reference, outstanding timing, and superlative juggling. If you want a wonderfully informative and fun performance, you can''t do better."
~Charles P. Lord. Headmaster, St. Timothy''s School, Baltimore, MD
“...Truly an advocate of the child, of the arts and of humanity. It is my hope that Mr. Newlin will continue to share his gifts and skills with the children of Washington, D.C. His work fills a void in their education and their lives.”
~Tia Powell Harris
Manager of Community Partnerships
Education Department The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
“An extraordinary feat...managed to keep the students focused and engaged while providing an enjoyable leaming environment....works well with students from diverse economic -and cultural backgrounds by consistently encouraging each individual to reach for his or her full potential.”
~Leo R. Bowman
Teacher of English
D.C. Public Schools
“The NicoloWhimsey Show has always had a very strong message--each show ends with the words, "Remember: If you shoot for the moon, and miss, you''re still among the stars." Mr. Newlin is now incorporating the theme of teaching tolerance into the NicoloWhimsey Show-our experience with him as an arts educator recognizes this as a natural progression for a show that has always entertained and inspired students, teachers, and the public.”
~Janet Field-Pickering
Head of Education
Folger Shakespeare Library
Washington, DC
“Our audiences included babies, preshoolers and elementary school children with their parents. They gave rave reviews about NicoloWhimsey''s special blend of juggling, poetry, music, and clowning activities. The shows also combined high use of audience participation that was both enjoyable and educational. There were lots of laughs throughout the performances!”
