Fats Waller, the comic and musical soul of 1930’s Harlem lives on in this
rollicking, swinging, finger-snapping revue that is still considered one of
Broadway’s best. The inimitable Thomas ìFatsî rose to international fame
during the Golden Age of the Cotton Club, honky tonk dives, stride piano
players and that jumpin’ new beat, Swing. Although not quite a biography, *
Ain’t Misbehavin*’ is a crowd pleasing, good times rollin’ winner. The show
is a no-holds barred, non-stop entertainment, neo-vaudevillian romp thru the
tunes of Fats Waller... each song tells a story and sets a scene... Our own
Patti D’Beck directs and choreographs a versatile cast who strut, sing and
swing the songs Fats made famous - *Honeysuckle Rose, This Joint is
Jumpin’* the
wicked*Ain’t Misbehavin’* and much, much more!

Director and choreographer *Patti D’Beck’s* latest projects include the
smash hit revival of *A Chorus Line* at the Pioneer Theatre Co. in Salt Lake
City, UT.  Greater Richmond audiences will recall her recent successes
including *Thoroughly Modern Millie* and *Guys and Dolls* (Barksdale
Theatre) as well as the musical hits *Chicago*, *Cabaret*, *Smokey Joe’s
CafÈ* and *The Civil War* (Theatre VCU). Ms. D’Beck is a veteran of many
Broadway musicals including the Broadway productions of *Annie Get Your Gun,
Bells Are Ringing, Grease!, The Will Rogers’ Follies, My One and Only,
Evita, The Best Little in Texas, A Chorus Line, Pippin, Seesaw, Applause*,
and pre-Broadway original musical *Easter Parade*. She also choreographed
the opening number for the 1997 Tony Awards for Rosie O’Donnell.
