Dixon Place and American Dance Festival (ADF) are pleased to present Sara Juli’s new comedic dance-theater work, Naughty Bits. The performance runs Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 14, 15, 16, at 7:30pm, at Dixon Place, 161A Chrystie Street (between Rivington and Delancey Streets), in Manhattan.

Naughty Bits is a dance-play set inside Juli’s memories that examines sexual trauma while finding levity within the tragic. Her mission is to explore her own personal struggles through the medium of performance. In sharing her work, she creates space for audiences to access their own challenges or traumas.  Her provocative, introspective autobiographical solo performance fuses movement, projections, text, song, audience interaction and comedy to both acknowledge the gravity of her burdens as well as simultaneously laugh at their reality. Naughty Bits finds the forgotten bits, funny bits (and wobbly bits) of putting one's mind and body back together.
