Description

After winning three (!) Tonys for his play Appropriate, Branden Jacobs Jenkins is back on Broadway with another epic family drama: Purpose. This time, it's directed by the one-and-only Phylicia Rashad (swoon) and centers a Black Political elite who finds themselves at a crossroads. Chloe and Vogue’s Features Editor Marley Marius talk with Branden about identity, writing characters for the stage and how he feels about being back in the Condé Nast offices after his long-ago stint at The New Yorker.

PLUS: How does Trump’s Tariffs affect customers and the fashion industry? We invite Vogue Business Executive Americas Editor Hilary Milnes to break down the news.
