2. Don’t miss! Keith Middleton
One of the earliest members of the Off Broadway powerhouse Stomp, Keith Middleton has been pounding the stage in the show where performers turn everyday objects such as matchboxes, brooms, and garbage cans into the fundamental building blocks of a dance, music and theatrical performance. Joining him on stage on Sep. 13 are local artists GUN, Pepe Ito, Jun, Hiro, and URA Hironori.
