Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to fulfill dream of performing on Broadway

Liberal supreme court judge will take on ensemble role in musical, a fantasy she articulated in Harvard application

Ketanji Brown Jackson is set to fulfill a long-held dream this Saturday, stepping on to Broadway in a one-night performance of the musical & Juliet.

The 54-year-old liberal supreme court justice will take on an ensemble role in the show, realising a goal she first articulated in her Harvard University application essay. Jackson will appear in the 8pm ET performance and participate in a post-show talkback with audience members.
