Ain't No Mo' to End Broadway Run Later This Month

The Broadway run of Jordan E. Cooper's Ain't No Mo' will end on Sunday, December 18, after 22 previews and 21 performances at the Belasco Theatre. The play had its world premiere at the Public Theater in 2019 and has subsequently been seen around the United States.

Ain't No Mo' stars and is written by Cooper. Blending sketch, satire, and avant garde theater, the play asks the incendiary question, "What if the U.S. government offered Black Americans one-way plane tickets to Africa?" Our critic called it a "no-holds-barred theatrical event." You can read the review here.
