Date – Time

Additional Information

Polly Abdool is hosting a totally tubular album release party for her friend, Debbie Gribson, at a posh VIP Beverly Hills club. Debbie Gribson is a top international pop idol who is releasing her new album, Eclectic Youth! She is simultaneously releasing a new fragrance line of the same name! The guest list is stock full of big-name celebrity guests who will undoubtedly hit the scene in outrageous '80s fashion! You are on the guest list and have received your invitation. There are a few names on the guest list that you dread having to be around for the night, but you wouldn't mind the exposure. This is where your story begins...

This exclusive event is for CHEFS members only—remember, membership has its privileges! (Who remembers those American Express commercials??)

**Character Roles:*UPDATE - all characters spots are taken but you can still sign up as a super slueth
Roles are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. After you register, I will email or text your teen’s assigned character role, giving you time to find a costume. I will email the address you have on file with CHEFS.  Please check for it!   If all character parts are taken, your teen can still participate as a Super Sleuth. Super Sleuths don’t have assigned characters but can dress up in themed outfits, observe, and guess the murderer.

**Registration:**  
Sign up early to secure your spot. Once registered, you will receive your teen’s character part via email or text. If you need to cancel, please notify me as soon as possible so we can find a replacement.
