DRACULA: A Comedy of Terrors
September 16 - October 26. 2025
Straz Center for the Performing Arts
1010 N. W. C. MacInnes Place
Tampa, FL 33602
Keaton starred as the title role in Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors at the Straz Center for the Performing Arts in Tampa, Florida. Written by Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen, this fast-paced, five-actor farce is a wildly irreverent take on Bram Stoker’s classic—filled with lightning-fast costume changes, campy humor, and a touch of bite.
Directed by Gordon Greenberg himself, the production ran September 16 – October 26, 2025 as part of the Straz Center’s Broadway season. Keaton took on the cape as Dracula, a role originally played by James Daly in the Off-Broadway and West End premiere.
A fast-paced, laugh-out-loud farce, Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors turns the iconic gothic tale on its head. Five fearless actors take on dozens of characters in a whirlwind of quick changes, physical comedy, and razor-sharp wit, reimagining Bram Stoker’s classic with modern humor and theatrical bravado. Equal parts spooky and hilarious, this irreverent romp breathes fresh life into the legendary vampire story.

Keaton had an absolute blast revisiting one of his favorite shows, starring as Danny Zuko in Grease at the Bucks County Playhouse in New Hope, PA. Directed by Hunter Foster, the production was truly ‘electrifying’—a high-octane tribute to those unforgettable ‘summer nights.’
“It’s Rydell High in 1959 and the duck-tailed, hot-rodding 'Burger Palace Boys' and the gum-snapping, hip-shaking 'Pink Ladies' rule the roost. After a summer romance, Danny and Sandy are unexpectedly reunited for their senior year, but can they survive the good and bad times at Rydell High?”
SWING! at The Broadway Palm
Keaton made his Broadway Palm debut as the male counterpart of the Star Couple in Swing!, a high-octane celebration of the Big Band Era.

As a featured dancer, Keaton performed numerous lifts and stunts, bringing dynamic flair to the stage. Critics praised the choreography as "phenomenal" and highlighted the dancers as "absolutely outstanding."
“Jump and jive with over 30 songs from the Big Band Era! Swing exploded out of Harlem and shattered cultural and ethnic barriers and now you can relive the dance phenomenon that swept the world. This all singing, all dancing extravaganza features It Don’t Mean a Thing If It Ain’t Got that Swing, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, In The Mood, Sing Sing Sing, Stompin’ at the Savoy, Cry Me A River, Bounce Me Brother and more.”
