Performances added for Ain't Misbehavin' At PNT

Following the highest-grossing week in ticket sales history, Performance Network Theatre has added three shows to its "Ain't Misbehavin'" schedule. The additional performances are Saturday, December 17 at 3:00pm; Wednesday, December 21 at 7:30pm; and Wednesday, December 28 at 7:30pm. Tickets for these performances are now available.

Marketing Director Chelsea Sadler said "Unfortunately we can't extend 'Ain't Misbehavin'' further into the month of January because of our upcoming production of the comedy 'God of Carnage.' Hopefully the addition of these three performances will allow all the folks who are clamoring to get seats the opportunity to enjoy the show."

Executive Director Carla Milarch said "During the holidays especially, we try to embrace the power of theatre to bring joy and music into people's lives. It is deeply gratifying to know that thousands of people in our community share our impulse to join together in this unique and celebratory experience."

The prodigious comic and musical soul of 1930s Harlem lives on in this rollicking, finger-snapping revue that is still considered one of Broadway's best. The inimitable Thomas "Fats" Waller rose to fame during the Golden Age of the Cotton Club, honky tonk dives, rent parties and that jumpin' new beat, Swing. "Ain't Misbehavin'" evokes the infectious humor and energy of this American era. Starring Broadway's Darrian Ford, James Bowen, K Edmonds, Kron Moore and Jennifer Cole.

"Ain't Misbehavin'" runs through January 1, 2012. In addition to the three new performances, weekly performances are Thursdays at 7:30, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 2pm, with a 3pm Saturday matinee on December 10th. There is no performance on December 25.
