She Landed a Major Role by Answering an Open Casting Call on Twitter
Due to financial difficulties, Nicola moved home to Galway, Ireland, to work part-time at an optician and get back on her feet. During that time, she responded to an open casting call on Twitter for Jess and Joe Forever at The Old Vic in London, and she just so happened to land the role of Jess. "Jess and Joe Forever is so special to me," she told The Stage during an October 2020 interview. "It is such a beautiful play, and it was my first break into the industry."
