Minneapolis theater CANCELS 1,500-ticket Dave Chappelle show at last minute

A Minneapolis theater canceled Dave Chappelle's sold-out show at the 11th hour on Wednesday to appease a group of woke protesters who threatened violence if the star was allowed to perform. 

First Avenue, a storied Minneapolis venue, canceled the show just hours before the famous comedian, 48, was supposed to hit the stage, bowing to the demands of MnUprising, a woke activism group which labeled Chappelle a transphobe. 

The group complained that Chappelle 'harmed' them with his 'transphobic views'. 

They launched a Change.org petition and attracted 125 signatures - a 12th of the crowd expected at the show on Wednesday night.
