NEW YORK STAGE REVEW ★★★★★ Traversing the entire Black experience in the U.S., “Mo’” is a bumpy ride – one you don’t want to miss. It’s heartening to see a provocative play the caliber of Ain’t No Mo’ vault to Broadway so swiftly. A hit at the Public Theatre in March 2019, it probably would have arrived even sooner were it not for the Covid hiatus. Either way, author/performer Jordan E. Cooper is now, at 27, on Broadway. His accomplishment is at once formidable and, with any luck, possibly premonitory: Imagine the ongoing contributions he’ll be set to make, should he continue to create at this rate.
