Throughout the month of February, The Broadway Show is celebrating some of the theater industry’s most influential Black artists. This week, the spotlight is on Camille A. Brown.

Wolfe's revival of Gypsy—the first Broadway production of Gypsy that reimagines Jerome Robbins' iconic original choreography.
