What Just Happened?

Nina Wise's WHAT JUST HAPPENED? is an improvisational performance based on personal and political events which have transpired over the previous twenty-four hours. Wise's autobiographical performances, known for their warmth and compassion, weave irony, physicality and insight into complex, spontaneous narratives. Her work, which has been compared to a cross between Lily Tomlin, the Dalai Lama and Jules Feiffer, is at once full of humor and poignancy. No two performances are ever the same--

"[Wise is] a metaphysical vaudevillian for the new millennium" - Bob Morris, N.Y. Times columnist

"Lovingkindness abounds in her work. She makes art as fresh as the day's headlines."
- Village Voice
