Frederique Nahmani

A very talented actress friend of mine made her New York stage debut last year in a play called "Cloud Tectonics". She (and the rest of the cast) got positive reviews from a variety of different publications. In fact, as far as I can tell, she only got a single negative review.

But when you google her name, guess which review comes up first?

That's right: the one negative review she got.

So, in the interest of contributing my tiny bit of google-juice to a good cause, I would like to note the following. (Anybody who is neither a search engine nor a New York city theatergoer may feel free to stop reading now.)

Frederique Nahmani was part of a cast praised by the New York Times.

And NYTheatre.com thought Frederique Nahmani was "alluringly mysterious" in the role, and that she and her co-stars were "three actors to keep an eye out for in the future."

The New Yorker didn't comment specifically on Frederique Nahmani, but they thought the production as a whole had a "poetic and sensual charm."

And the New York Press was especially enthusiastic, " Frederique Nahmani does more, creating an ephemeral, tilt-a-whirl performance that anchors the bizarreness. She’s an inch of crystal-clear sky in a story catapulted out of the timelessness of pure imagination."
