SONGS STUCK IN MY BODY is a 45-min romp through the residue of childhood. Through dance, storytelling and song, Sarah Chien excavates the “childhood crap” rattling around in her head and her mom’s midwestern basement. At once comedic and deeply personal, “Songs” sorts through the capitalist excess, gender socialization and family heritage that we accumulate on our way to making sense of who we are. Munch on real Girl Scout cookies, cuddle a Beanie Baby, sing along to a familiar song and ask yourself “What do we do with memories that no longer fit?” Songs Stuck in My Body is a dance adventure which reminds audiences of all ages that their stories are already worth telling.

FRINGEPVD: The Providence Fringe Festival was started in 2014 and is open to anyone who wants to produce their own show. For some artists, it’s a once-a-year opportunity to create a show; for others it can be an opportunity to try something new. Audiences are encouraged to take full advantage of the variety of performing & visual artists participating in the fringe. Attend performances that you wouldn’t normally attend, see things you wouldn’t otherwise see. Keep an open mind, and have fun. FRINGEPVD: The Providence Fringe Festival is presented by The Wilbury Theatre Group, in collaboration with WaterFire Providence.
