Tony Award-winning musical performer Melba Moore will bring her famous four octave voice to the intimate Prince Music Theater when their Holiday production of Ain't Misbehavin' takes to the stage on December 4. Rounding out the headliners will be Broadway performers Eugene Fleming and Ken Prymus.

The unique combination of these three performers brings an insight and thrill to a show that will light Philadelphia with the vocal power and punch it richly deserves. The smooth-toned, jazz-soaked musical that showcases the music of legendary American composer and piano player Thomas "Fats" Waller lit upon the Broadway scene in 1978 and quickly made stars of its performers, including the late Nell Carter.

Conceived by Broadway director Richard Maltby, Jr. and Murray Horowitz the show brought the Harlem Renaissance to Broadway with such hits as "T'Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do," "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter," and the sexy, double entendre ballad "Honeysuckle Rose."

Ain't Misbehavin' will be directed by Prince Music Theater's Associate Artistic Director, Richard M. Parison, Jr. Choreographing the production will be frequent Prince collaborator Mercedes Ellington. Rounding out the artistic team will be the Prince's Resident Music Supervisor Eric Barnes who is fresh off the national tour of Chicago as Associate Conductor, Scenic Designer Todd Edward Ivins, Lighting Designer Shelley Hicklin, Sound Designer Nick Kourtides and Costume Designer Mark Mariani.

Ain't Misbehavin' begins December 4 and will run through December 31. Performances are Tuesday and Wednesday at 7pm, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 8pm, with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday at 2pm, and Sunday at 3pm. Special performances will be added during the week between Christmas and New Years.

Tickets are $35 for preview performances (Dec. 4-Dec.7), $40 for weekday evenings and all matinees, and $55 for Saturday evenings. New Years Eve will see the Prince come alive with the pop of Champagne with exclusive packages that begin at $75. Tickets may be purchased now through UpStages by calling 215 569 9700 or visiting the Prince Music Theater, 1412 Chestnut Street or via our website, www.princemusictheater.org.
