Rocha Dance Theater is thrilled to present the world premiere of Caution:HOT, which incorporates theatricality, outlandish, original costuming, projection, and dance in an often surreal ode to womens’ reproductive bodies. Through a series of linked vignettes, Rocha Dance Theater delves into the unmentionable and taboo, forcing the hush-hush, murky world of reproductive stages into the spotlight in this compelling world premiere. From tampon wigs to the proverbial biological clock, Caution:HOT puts it all out there, unabashedly and unashamed. 

Caution:HOT is choreographed and costumed by Jenny Rocha of both Rocha Dance Theater and lauded neo burlesque troupe, The Painted Ladies, and showcases a percussive, nuanced score by husband and long-term collaborator, Joseph Rivas. 

Featuring dancers Alex Bittner, Dervla Carey-Jones, Nikki Ervice, Jamie Graham, Nicole Lemelin, Corinne Shearer, and Rocha herself, Caution:HOT will shock, delight, and destigmatize.
