Naughty Bits
Naughty Bits is a dance-play set inside Juli’s memories that examines trauma while finding levity within the tragic. Her provocative autobiographical solo fuses movement, text, song, audience interaction and comedy to find the forgotten bits, funny bits (and wobbly bits) of putting one's mind and body back together.
Naughty Bits was originally commissioned by the Strand Theatre in Rockland, Maine, through their New Century Series.Touring support available, in part by the New England States Touring program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts Regional Touring Program and the six New England state arts agencies.
Burnt-Out Wife
"An imaginative and brave show performed with fearless vulnerability by the warm, wild, and untamed Sara Juli"
- Broadway Baby
Burnt-Out Wife explores the decay and detritus of a once-promising marriage. Separation, sex deprivation, and lack of communication add up to wanting to run from the popular, yet impossible binding contract. Using her comedic text-driven dance style, Sara Juli blows up marriage.
Burnt-Out Wife was originally co-commissioned by SPACE (ME), Portland Ovations (ME), Dixon Place (NYC) and American Dance Festival (NC).
