AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’ is the celebration of the outrageously prodigious and musical soul of
1930’s Harlem in a rollicking, swinging, finger-snapping revue that is still considered one of
Broadway’s best. The inimitable Thomas ―Fats‖ Waller rose to international fame during the
Golden Age of the Cotton Club and the Savoy Ballroom, delivering that jumpin’ new beat,
Swing. AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’ evokes the delightful humor and infectious energy of this
American original.
