Original Music by KEITH "WILD CHILD" MIDDLETON

The New York debut of this newly revised FringeNYC hit LIMITED ENGAGEMENT runs FEB 11-27 ONLY

Playwright/performer Brandt Johnson worked as an investment banker, played on tour against the Harlem Globetrotters (losing every game), and played professional basketball in Europe. He now pulls these disparate experiences together in Give and Go. He has appeared in many New York stage productions, including Pitchfork Disney (Off-Broadway), Walt Disney's workshop of Hoopz (directed by Savion Glover and Kenny Leon), and the workshop of Joe Fearless (with Matthew Broderick and Rosie Perez). The play is directed by Ron Stetson, whose work has been seen at LaMama, Ensemble Studio Theatre, the Atlantic Theatre Company, Playwrights Horizons, and the Kennedy Center. He is a member of both the Ensemble Studio Theatre and The Players, and teaches at The Neighborhood Playhouse. The production features original music by Keith "Wild Child" Middleton, a performer with the Off-Broadway hit Stomp in New York and across the globe. Keith produces and performs with his rap group, Hydra, and composed for the Off-Broadway productions Spineand Joe Fearless.

Give and Go: Learning from Losing to the Harlem Globetrotters is presented by Metropolitan Playhouse, 220 East 4th Street, New York, NY 10009.
