From NYU:

"Cofield’s Twelfth Night is billed as an afrofuturistic update to Shakespeare’s romantic comedy anchored by a majority Black artistic team and a dazzling turn from 2022 Tony nominee Kara Young. Prior to its two-week run at NYU Skirball (Feb. 11-19), and to kick off Black History Month in February, we checked in with Professor Cofield for a conversation that explores how the makings of his artistic life inform a fuller creative vision, and how representation and reimagination are bolstering theatre across the country."
