Beat of the Traps (1992) is a multidisciplinary performance created by Mike Kelley, Anita Pace, and Stephen Prina. Presented in Los Angeles for the first time since its debut in 1992, this collaborative work assembles a dance performance, a percussion recital, a rock drum solo, a music fanatic’s vaudevillian monologue about rock star excess, and the number one song on Billboard’s Hot 100 at the time of the performance.
