 Shtik! is monologist & juggler Sara Felder's new solo show that
 explores the lives and routines ("shtik") of an  immigrant
 vaudevillian with a penchant for cross-dressing and a queer performance
 artist searching for a glimpse of her past.

 Our story begins with a young Jew sailing from Warsaw who dons a pair
 of trousers and ponders the wonders of Amerike.  Then we travel to the
 present to meet a queer performance artist, who falls shamelessly in
 love with Yiddish culture.  Shtik! features a clown's secret recipe, a
 gender-bending pas de deux, a nearly century-old Yiddish play with a
 twist that could make a hipster plotz, a juggler with attitude playing
 the classics, granddaughters of Budists swaying with the Holy Torah
 at the Western Wall...

 In her signature style, Felder turns her insightful eye and sharp wit to
 the great questions of our time:  identity, sexuality and rubber chickens.
