What Just Happened is aperformance by Nina Wise.

She gets up on stage, and through movement-fused storytelling conveys the personal, political and social events that have transpired over the past 24 hours (or less) with striking insight and seemingly unlimited access.  Her performances are deeply moving, utterly inspiring and downright hilarious all at once.   

Described as a blend of Lily Tomlin, the Dalai Lama, and Jules Feiffer, Wise is known for her quirky humor, her wisdom, and her startling physicality.

“Every so often an artist comes along and when watching her perform, you say to yourself, ‘I’m so lucky to be alive to witness this.’ Nina Wise is that kind of artist.”

— Marianne Williamson

" Loving kindness abounds in her work. She makes art as fresh as the days headlines." 

—Village Voice. 

“Nina Wise is something else again. She shapes theater pieces that are thoroughly grounded in intellectual commitment and emotional depth.” 

—SF Chronicle 

“A metaphysical vaudevillian for the new millennium”

—Bob Morris, N.Y. Times columnist 

“Nina Wise is part of a vanishing breed . . . artists who feel that emotional content and intellectual stimulation are not foreign ingredients to performance art.”
