A play about Fats Waller starts this Saturday at the Rep. There is a special discount on tickets available for San Jose Jazz members (become a member) - see details below.
The joint is jumpin' to the music of Thomas "Fats" Waller in this Tony® Award-winning musical revue. Five phenomenal artists and a jumpin' jazz band take you through the pain and triumphs of the African-American experience during the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and 30s. It was the Golden Age of Jazz with places like the Cotton Club and Savoy Ballroom where snappy swing music, snazzy jazz and the stride piano infused the energy of the country.
