Kingfish, Amos and Andy, written by Carl Clay and directed by Bette Howard, is a take off from the first Black television sitcom Amos and Andy, a comedic series which aired once a week in the 1950s. Good hearty laughter always filled the room when the family gathered around the television to watch Amos and Andy back in the 50's. The style of this sitcom was appealing to people, because it was written with a light sense of humor which had all the depth of comedy, without the harsh language and crude jokes.

Now Kingfish, Amos, Andy, Sapphire, Mama-Queen Bee, Lightning and Calhoun are all on stage and they are stirring up a Good Time at Black Spectrum Theatre. Carl Clay has introduced a few new characters to the historic comedy and the setting is now in Harlem.
