FRIDAY, APRIL 10 – SUNDAY, APRIL 12 Before we know it,
there will be a TV show called “Where Have All the American Idols
Gone?” If you’ve had any curiosity about the whereabouts of Ruben Studdard,
the smooth-voiced crooner Gladys Knight calls “The Velvet Teddy Bear,”
we can tell you he’s on his best behavior these days as he headlines
the 30th anniversary tour of the Tony Award-winning Ain’t Misbehavin’.
The musical revue of Fats Waller’s songbook includes vintage gems like
“Honeysuckle Rose,” “Tain’t Nobody’s Business If I Do,” and “This Joint
Is Jumpin’.” The highvoltage show will whisk you back to
Prohibition-era Harlem when it shimmies into the Strand Theatre (543 Columbia Road, Dorchester, 617.282.8000) this weekend. For tickets ($28–$58), visit www.citicenter.org or call 866.348.9738.
