WESTPORT — An exhibit, “Music of the American Experience: Black Excellence and the Sounds of the Jazz Age,” is on view until April 29 at the Westport Country Playhouse.

A collaboration between the theater and the Westport Museum for History and Culture, the lobby display is planned in conjunction with the current production of “Ain’t Misbehavin’: The Fats Waller Musical.”

The exhibit “explores the music featured in the show and the historical events that led to the Harlem Renaissance,” according to a publicity release.

There is no charge to view the exhibit two hours before any performance of “Ain’t Misbehavin’,” according to the playhouse.

“We are committed to aiding these fellow cultural institutions provide their audiences with opportunities to connect to our past and to civic engagement in the present,” Ramin Ganeshram, the museum’s executive director, said in the statement.
