Wendell Pierce and the cast of Nathan Louis Jackson's Broke-ology celebrated their opening night Off-Broadway at Lincoln Center Theater's Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater Oct. 5.

Director Thomas Kail, playwright Jackson and the company toasted the play's New York debut with a party at Manhattan's O'Neals.

Pierce leads a cast that also features Francois Battiste, Crystal A. Dickinson and Alano Miller.

Broke-ology "is the story of the King family who have weathered the hardships of life and survived with their love for each other intact. But when two brothers are called home to take care of their ailing father, one of them must choose to follow the life he dreams of or honor the unspoken promise of loyalty to his family."
