Whatever Just Happened, Didn't Happen

Whatever Just Happened is the first of GRP’s political trilogy that explores the state of politics and the media in our great country. A 25-minute performance piece, Whatever Just Happened explores the Monica Lewinsky scandal from the point of view of two government workers condemned to sorting the seemingly endless stack of documents created by the inquiry.

Written and performed by William Bowling and Chris Kaminstein

Whatever Just Happened, Didn’t Happen premiered at the State of the Nation Festival on March 21, 2009 at NOCCA’s Nims Blackbox Theatre in New Orleans, LA. It was subsequently performed on April 10-11, 2009 at the Allways Lounge & Theatre in New Orleans, LA.

“…Whatever Just Happened, Didn't Happen... was a cleverly absurd riff on the Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky scandal...” Will Coviello, The Gambit (April 20, 2009)

The Calculus of Hope

November 2008
New Orleans Fringe Festival
Skull Club, New Orleans

Levees collapse. Steam pipes explode. Bridges crumble. Our fragile bodies move through it all. In a reflection on life, love and bridges, two friends carry, push, silence, hold and drench each other. They dance and tell stories to balance the equation: complex infrastructure + fragile bodies = safety is relative(loving is risky).
