The Dinner Party:A Whodunnit Cabaret is an immersive performance experience based on the movie, CLUE! It is a campy rendition of this beloved film using a super fusion of performing arts such as dance, acting, singing, circus arts and burlesque to tell the story. Rocha's signature references to pop culture adds a twist of humor that is unique to her work, all the while celebrating certain infamous scenes from the film. The format is not a variety show, but a cohesive story told through various performance mediums. Expect the focus to move around the venue/mansion. A campy re-enactment of murder may happen right above you, beside you or on top of you! Rocha's work is reputably funny, energized and theatrical. The New York Times described her choreography as "authoritative work" and her company as "hilarious manic tootsies". Burlesque Beat described her work as "..wholly baked, completely conceptualized goodness...". Jenny Rocha & Her Painted Ladies have been the resident dance company at Galapagos' Flagship Series, The Floating Kabarette since 2008. Rocha is collaborating with her dance troupe as well as variety performers in the nightlife scene in NYC. Cast includes: Joshua Dean, Ben Franklin, Lisa Natoli, Jason Mejias, Jillian Hollis, Jamie Graham, Rosie 151, Michael Karas, Courtney Drasner, Molly Merkler, Kenneth Ziegler, Jennifer Kovacs and Jenny Rocha.
