Ms. Nixon appeared on Broadway in FOLLILES, OPAL, NINE, GIRL IN THE PINK TIGHTS, JAMES JOYCE'S THE DEAD and originated the role of Edna in the Off-Broadway production of TAKING MY TURN, receiving a Drama Desk Award nomination for Best Actress. She performed as a soloist with the New York Philharmonic and gave concerts at Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall and Town Hall in New York City.
