Don't Bother Me, I Can't Cope

Originally conceived and directed by the first African-American woman to direct on Broadway, Vinnette Carroll, this radical work presents the issues of race politics in America and raises voices for change through a lively mix of song and dance with a score that includes gospel, jazz, soul, calypso, and rock.

A Tony nominee as Best Musical of the season, this dynamic mixture of gospel, r&b, calypso and ballads features a dozen singer-dancers in 20 numbers. In revue-style format, Don't Bother Me... explores the African American experience through vibrant song and dance.
“Zesty and fun...lively score and lyrics...Deserves a wide audience.” – The New York Times
