30 Years of Soul.

This isn’t just a season – it’s a celebration! Soul Rep Theatre is turning 30, and we’re bringing you our most powerful, unapologetic, and thrilling season yet. For three decades, we’ve been pushing the boundaries of theatre, shining a spotlight on stories that matter, and giving voice to the untold and unseen.

“An ingenious, outrageous, hilarious, no-holds-barred theatrical event.”

– TheaterMania

Soul Rep Theatre is thrilled to present the North Texas premiere of Ain’t No Mo’, the explosive Broadway hit by Fort Worth native and trailblazing playwright Jordan E. Cooper. Nominated for six Tony Awards, this razor-sharp comedy blends satire, sketch, and avant-garde theatre — with a splash of drag — to imagine what happens when the U.S. government offers Black Americans a one-way ticket to Africa. Fast-paced, hilarious, and deeply thought-provoking, Ain’t No Mo’ takes audiences on an unforgettable flight through the complexities of Black life in America today.

 

Fade to Black Festival

We are honored to bring this staged reading of No Chil’ Left to the first Fade to Black Festival in Houston, TX this June. The festival will simultaneously showcase the diverse works of African-American performances in film, music, poetry, and theatre.

Soul Rep Theatre is proud to showcase a staged reading of Yusef Miller’s new play No Chil’ Left, a farce directed by Ezekiel Morgan.

When two teenagers from radically different racial and generational backgrounds become unexpectedly pregnant, their families — a progressive Black grandfather and his sidekick LeVar Burton (as himself) and his conservative White wife and her sidekick former Surgeon General Dr. Joycelyn Elders (as herself) — must confront decades of buried prejudice, cultural assumptions, and conflicting ideals of family, legacy, and love.
