Performance Space 122 has announced an updated schedule for The Octoroon: An Adaptation of The Octoroon Based on The Octoroon, written and directed by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, which will now run June 19-July 3. In addition, Pan Pan theatre company has discontinued its collaboration on the production by mutual consent of all parties.

Jacobs-Jenkins’ play is described as “a bombastic, super-theatrical, full-scale investigation of that classic intersection of theatre and identity politics.”
