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.
