Side Show: Juggling from the Margins

Feb 21, 2024 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Theater Performance featuring guest artist Sara Felder

Side Show is a funny, theatrical, and moving meditation on the balancing act of being human. In a collage of juggling routines and stories from Jewish Brooklyn and queer San Francisco, Felder confronts issues of fear, gender, parents, economic class, college, and more, while keeping audiences laughing along the way.

A vibrant performer, masterful juggler, and irresistible monologist, Felder brings to her performance a queer sensibility along with rich imagery provided by object-play, compelling text, and visual metaphor. Best known for her solo play, June Bride, about a traditional Jewish lesbian wedding, Felder is excited to bring the radical and witty Side Show to Springfield College.

Her work has been hailed as “hilarious and triumphantly heartwarming” by the Philadelphia Inquirer.

This event is free and open to the Springfield College community and the public.
