Over the course of the night, our costumed Detectives will uncover clues, interrogate audience members that may or may not be part of the show, and help everyone get closer to solving the mystery.

It is rare to find a vocal artist who can maneuver between genres while maintaining a genuine authenticity of each and the integrity of her own voice. Spanning from classical to gospel to jazz through to rock, blues, pop, funk and soul, JoFoKe (bka Joslyn Ford-Keel) is such a vocalist who does this with ease. Fabled to have been born with microphone in-hand on a snowy Denver evening, she was raised engrossed in performing and worship artistry by her classically trained, jazz pianist father, choir director mother and all around artsy blended family. This eclectic artist grew up active in music, theater and dance but, perhaps the greatest impressions were left when she was given a chance to "sit-in" with her family and friends' bands, vocal groups and orchestras. JoFoKe (pronounced: Joh-Foh-Kee) emerged on the professional Colorado music scene as a teen and, because of her sophisticated musical ear, attention to detail, and ability to effectively adapt her sound to most styles of music, she was quickly dubbed a "chameleon". Having spent nearly 20 years as a session vocalist, artists consultant, clinician and in other support capacities within the music industry, JoFoKe is currently a highly sought after singer, songwriter, arranger and vocal producer.

Difficult plays are Curious Theatre Company’s bread and butter, and
The Body of an American
continues in that mold with riveting precision. Dan O’Brien’s story — part fractured autobiography, part ethics review and part homage to the unadorned art of photojournalism — is based on the split-second shot that earned a Pulitzer Prize for war photog Paul Watson, whose most famous image, of an American soldier dragged from the wreckage of a Black Hawk helicopter through the streets of Mogadishu, still haunts him. The two-man cast, ostensibly appearing as O’Brien and Watson, who struck up a friendship in real life, shape-shifts from one role to another (Curious calls actors Sean Scrutchins and Michael McNeill an “ensemble cast”), sometimes trading identities mid-sentence. Difficult enough for you?

Curious Theatre Company's ambitious serial storytelling series, which began with Tarell Alvin McCraney's powerful trio of Brother/Sister Plays, will sail into the completion of its second cycle - The Elliot Trilogy, by Quiara Alegría Hudes - to start off 2017. The final Elliot play, The Happiest Song Plays Last, opens for two nights of previews starting at 8 p.m. Thursday, January 12, at Curious, 1080 Acoma Street. Song brings to a close three chapters in the story of the recurring character Elliot, who starts out as a young Puerto Rican soldier from north Philly fighting overseas in the first installment and ends up reenacting his wartime experience as an actor for a film being made in Jordan in the last. Curious will punch up The Happiest Song, a play that works alone or as part of the trilogy, with live Puerto Rican and Middle Eastern music.
