Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson Makes Broadway Debut in Special “& Juliet” Performance

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson recently made her Broadway debut in a special one-night performance of “& Juliet.”

Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman on the Supreme Court, fulfilled a lifelong dream of stepping onto the theater stage.

“I feel very much in my element,” she told CBS News. Reflecting on her love for theater, Jackson said she was always performing as a child and felt deeply connected to the theater community.

The experience included rehearsals, choreography, and vocal training, culminating in appearances in two scenes of the hit musical.

Jackson said, “It’s a story about female empowerment… to control their own destiny.”
