About
Beat of the Traps: Mike Kelley, Anita Pace, Stephen Prina has enough weekend energy to earn a spot on the board.
It is the first time the piece has been staged in Los Angeles since its 1992 debut, following a 2025 reconstruction at MoMA. It opens MOCA's WAREHOUSE performance season. All three shows are listed as sold out, so it is only worth planning around if you already hold a ticket.
What to expect
A single evening that moves between dance, drumming, a spoken monologue and a pop song. A cash bar opens 30 minutes before each show for guests 21 and over, and drinks can be taken to seats.
