AIN'T MISBEHAVIN':
THE FATS WALLER MUSICAL SHOW

Conceived by Richard Maltby, Jr.
and Murray Horwitz
Musical adaptations, orchestrations &
arrangements by Luther Henderson 

Directed by Charity Robinson

March 17 - April 2, 2023

Fats Waller is regarded as one of the greatest jazz pianists, a gifted songwriter whose rhythmic, contagious work captivated listeners. Ain’t Misbehavin' brings to life a rowdy time when the Cotton Club and the Savoy Ballroom were playgrounds of high society and Lenox Avenue dives were filled with piano players banging out the new music known as Swing. Join our talented performers as they present an evening of funny, rowdy, infectious songs such as "The Joint Is Jumpin'," "Your Feet's Too Big," and "Honeysuckle Rose," songs that reflect Waller's view of life as a journey meant for pleasure and play.

Presented by special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI)

June 2 - June 18, 2023

Just released from a five year prison sentence, feisty Percy Talbott is looking for a fresh start. Reading an old travel book, she discovers the small town of Gilead, Wisconsin and decides to move there. With the help of the local sheriff, Percy gets a job at the only eatery in this struggling town. When owner Hannah decides to raffle off the grill in an essay contest, mail begins to arrive by the wheelbarrow full. Things are getting hot at the Spitfire Grill and Percy's precarious new existence is endangered. This inspirational musical triumph celebrates fresh starts and the power of what one person can do.
