In A, C, and E, only AFTER TWO WEEKS implies that the passage of two weeks was the only REASON for the closing of the play.
Not the intended meaning: POOR TICKET SALES were the reason for the closing of the play.
The intention here is to emphasize the BRIEF AMOUNT OF TIME for which the play ran.
To convey this meaning, only must be positioned directly before the amount of time:
The play was closed after only TWO WEEKS.
Eliminate A, C, and E.

In B, enough that is considered unidiomatic on the GMAT. Eliminate B.

The correct answer is D.
