AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’ Runs Jan. 18-Feb. 3

DPH_logoAIN’T MISBEHAVIN’
Dayton Playhouse
Jan. 18-Feb. 3

Cast: Kip Moore as Ken, Stephanie Radford as Nell, Andrea Wilborn as Amelia, Bry’ana Bentley as Charlaine, Everett Walker as Andre, Kiersten Farmer as Featured dancer & Nasir Peterson as Featured dancer

At the height of the historic Harlem Renaissance, venues like The Cotton Club were jumpin’ to a new beat called “swing.” AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’ is a rollicking, finger-snapping, toe-tapping, Tony Award®-winning musical revue — a tribute to the black entertainers of the early 1900’s that centers on the music of one of the most prolific musicians of the time, Thomas “Fats” Waller.
