Names and faces
The Shubert Organization's Cort Theatre on Broadway will be renamed for James Earl Jones, fulfilling a promise by the theater giant to honor a Black artist in that fashion. "For me standing in this very building 64 years ago at the start of my Broadway career, it would have been inconceivable that my name would be on the building today," said Jones, 91. "Let my journey from then to now be an inspiration for all aspiring actors."
