Theater  (Highlights)

Commercial/Flm

Village Theatre   |   Camelot   |    Mordred

           "Played incredibly (and devilishly) well by Nik Hagen, Mordred flips the kingdom on its head, stirring the pot and having a good amount do to with the chaos that leads to its downfall. Nik is so good at being bad, he’s everything you’d want in a character who can twist a proverbial knife, and do it with a smile on his face." - The Sound on Stage

              "Nik Hagen who turns in some fantastic physical comedy in act one only to return in act two as the deliciously conniving Mordred who led the Knights in an amazing rendition of “The Seven Deadly Virtues” - Broadway World

       "Nik Hagen as the wayward Tobias brings in a vulnerable sweetness to the role mixed with his super clear and powerful vocals. And the moment with the two of them for "Not While I'm Around" is lovely." - Broadway World

"Hagen as Franz, when he lets go in "Hit me with your best shot" brought the house down."  Broadway World Review of Rock of Ages:

"And Hagen with his incredibly expressive face could not be more adorable as the dreamer Leaf." Broadway World Review of 25th Annual...
