For immediate release
Stage North has announced that due to a last-minute loss of cast members as a result of vocal illness and scheduling conflicts, we will be postponing our production of Ain’t Misbehavin’ until May of next year. While this is disappointing, the company feels that rather than putting up a hastily assembled production, the show would be best served by a postponement until everyone involved is healthy and available.
The show, under the direction of Kelli Foster Warder and musical direction of Sanford Moore, and the original cast, will open at the Capri on May 12, 2023.
Stage North returns to the Capri Theater this fall with the Tony Award-winning hit Ain’t Misbehavin’, the Fats Waller musical show, opening Friday, September 16 and running through Sunday, October 9.
Directed and choreographed by Kelli Foster Warder, fresh off her highly-acclaimed production of Jelly’s Last Jam at Theatre Latte Da, and with musical direction by local music legend Sanford Moore, Ain’t Misbehavin’ brings the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and 1930s to life.
Join five performers on a journey through the timeless music of Thomas “Fats” Waller. You’ll be jumpin’ and jivin’ with memorable songs such as Honeysuckle Rose, Ain’t Misbehavin’, Black and Blue, This Joint is Jumpin’ and I’ve Got a Feeling I’m Falling. One of the most popular, well-crafted revues of all time, this sometimes sassy, sometimes sultry, always hugely entertaining show features the incredible vocal talents of Len Jones, Alexcia Thompson, Heather McElrath, Dwight Leslie and Jamela Pettiford.
