On stage follow Harlem during the Golden Age of places like the world famous Apollo Theater and the elegant Cotton Club. A Stompin’ in Harlem takes you to the “Jim Jam Jumpin’ Jive” of the Savoy Ballroom and even provides a glimpse into the honky-tonk dives and low down speakeasies along Lenox Avenue.
A Stompin’ in Harlem! welcomes you, full throttle, on board the "ATrain" into a "Choo Choo Ch’boogie" evening filled with classic songs. Deceptively simple, the show begins when Mona, a starry eyed woman arrives to New York with the hopes of fulfilling a lifelong dream, to perform in one of Harlem’s finest night clubs. With the help of two unlikely gentlemen her magical journey begins when she convinces them to “Drop Me Off in Harlem.”
Once there, not only is she taken on a jubilant excursion throughout Harlem, but ultimately, she is given the opportunity to live out her dream.
