Nyhan and J. Michael Zygo are in love on stage -- and
off.
The New York
couple play comic leads Ado Annie and Will Parker in
"Oklahoma!" which will be performed at the RiverPark
Center next week. Of course, Ado Annie and Will Parker
get together in the musical. The same is true for Nyhan,
26, and Zygo, 25. They will wed Saturday in Burnt Hills,
N.Y. They'll fly here Monday. Then, on Tuesday, they
will play opposite each other for the first time as
husband and wife. "We'll have so much chemistry and emotions rushing through us," Nyhan said
in a telephone interview. "I think it's going to be such
a wonderful performance." Since September, she's been
the understudy for the Ado Annie role. The actress who
played the part left the show, presenting the
opportunity for Nyhan and Zygo to perform together.They
met eight years ago in college, but they didn't start
dating until 2000. They were engaged in October. "We did
a lot of shows together in college," Zygo said. Their
acting careers have separated them from time to time,
but they've often been able to work together, as they do
now. "We've managed to work together successfully," Zygo
said. For the next five weeks, they'll be on the road in
"Oklahoma!" When the show ends, they will set up house
in New York.
To
have both of them working in the same show is a
blessing, Nyhan said. "It's a dream come true. It's
something that doesn't happen to most people, especially
in this business," she said. Earlier, they requested
time off this week. They planned to use it to get ready
for the wedding. "We've been planning this whole wedding
on the road," Nyhan said. "Praise the Lord for the
Internet and cell phones." They look forward to
honeymooning in Owensboro. "Weddings are an incredibly
emotional and wonderful time," she said.
