ABOUT THE PLAY:  

Get ready to tap your toes and snap your fingers — Ain’t Misbehavin’ is a musical party set to the unforgettable music of jazz legend Fats Waller. Bursting with the spirit of a Harlem nightclub and the energy of a live bandstand performance, this Tony Award-winning revue celebrates the wit, charm, and groundbreaking music that helped define the sound of the Harlem Renaissance. Flirtatious, joyful, and a little mischievous, the show is pure swing from start to finish. 

Featuring a lively score packed with classics including “Honeysuckle Rose,” “The Joint Is Jumpin’,” “Keepin’ Out of Mischief Now,” “Mean to Me,” and the iconic title song, “Ain’t Misbehavin’,” the production blends powerhouse vocals, dynamic choreography, and infectious rhythm into an evening that captures the joy and sophistication of 1920s and 1930s Harlem nightlife. Rather than telling a single narrative story, the revue paints a vibrant portrait of an era — one filled with romance, humor, heartbreak, and celebration — through the music and spirit of Fats Waller and the artists who shaped American jazz. Produced in partnership with People’s Light.
