First premiering in 2022, WHODUNIT? has seen great success, and has become a well known and beloved show within our community. Created by Kathleen Doherty, featuring live jazz music composed by Andrew Jackson, the show is a twist on a classic murder mystery. The movement is rooted in Jazz dance, with rhythm, connection, groundedness, and a major sense of ensemble between the entire cast of dancers & musicians. With laughs throughout, the cast takes audiences on a journey to solve the mystery, while accusing one another along the way.
