Conceived and Performed by Nina Wise
Daunted by the news of the world? Come relieve your heart and mind as Nina gets up on stage and through movement-fused storytelling conveys the personal, political and social events that have transpired over the past 24 hours with striking insight and her always unpredictable rendition of life on planet earth. She has been described as a cross between Lily Tomlin, the Dalai Lama and Jules Feiffer. And audiences repeatedly report they have never seen anything quite like one of her performances before— that they are at one instant laughing so hard they are falling off their seats and the next moment moved to tears. Don’t miss this soulful entertainer whose work is steeped in wisdom, compassion and humor.
“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
“Nina is an empowering, joyful and celebratory guide to a fuller life.”
— Isabel Allende
“Nina Wise is like the Jules Pfeiffer dancer come to life. She says in public what I’m thinking and feeling but musn’t reveal. After the audience experiences her performance art, we can’t stop talking about her. We care about what she cares about. And we care about her.”
— Maxine Hong Kingston
