Tony nominated Broadway star Nick Cordero is fighting for his life in a Manhattan hospital. His wife, Amanda Kloots, posted to Instagram that he’s in the ICY and unconscious. Nick’s professional background is knockout performances in “Bullets over Broadway” (Tony nomination) and “A Bronx Tale.” He was most recently featured in “Waitress.” He’s one of Broadway’s brightest young stars. But I’ve also known him for a while, interviewed him and had long talks with him and his wife, and he is just the best. So is she. So we are all sending prayers for him to get well ASAP.

“My sweet husband needs your prayers please. Nick has been sick for awhile with what we were told last week was pneumonia. Unfortunately we think he was misdiagnosed and we are waiting to hear if this is in fact COVID. He is scared, in the ICU and now unconscious so his body can get enough oxygen. We are all trying to stay positive and strong knowing that he is in the best care. I miss him terribly. I’m not allowed there to visit of course and can do nothing to help him. Nick is scared too, this has gone from bad to worse. He isn’t allowed to eat or drink, he is very weak and having a hard time breathing. Elvis and I are feeling completely fine. My hubby is fighting like a champ but this is serious. Please stay home everybody. Thank you to everyone who has been helping us so far you know who are and you are all angels.”
