Broadway BUZZ

As the original “Contralto” fate, Jewelle is thrilled to be stepping into the role of Persephone, “Our Lady of the Underground.” A role she has been coveting since she first became involved with Hadestown in 2017. A native of Toronto, Canada, past credits include the Canadian companies of Hadestown; The Lion King; We Will Rock You; Caroline, or Change; Dreamgirls; and three seasons at the Stratford Festival. Television/Film: Ghostwriter, The Coroner, Frankie Drake, Nine Lives. Jewelle continues crafting her new musicals Boy Boy and The Magic Drum and The Trials and Triumphs of a Tar Baby. Gratitude always for friends and family. For Zion.
