After studying acting at Neighborhood Playhouse in New York City, Keaton was cast as the understudy for the character of Sheila in the original Broadway production of Hair in 1968. The following year, she starred in Woody Allen's comedic stage play Play it Again, Sam, which earned her a Tony Award nomination for a Best Featured Actress in a Play. ...
