Event Details
By Jordan E. Cooper
Directed by Mikala Gibson
Through a blend of sketch, satire and avant-garde theatre, Ain’t No Mo’ answers the incendiary question: What if the United States government offered Black Americans one-way plane tickets to Africa?
This unpredictable comedy speeds through the turbulent skies of being Black in today's America. A kaleidoscope of moments surrounding this great exodus are told by an ensemble cast featuring Peaches, a larger-than-life flight agent boarding the final plane leaving the United States.
Ain’t No Mo’ leaves audiences crying with laughter – and thinking through the tears.
