Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is checking off another item on her bucket list: Broadway.

Jackson will appear in a one-night performance of the musical comedy “& Juliet” on Saturday, according to an Instagram post from the Broadway show.

The role is a walk-on, which does not typically include any lines of dialogue.

Jackson will also participate in a special “talkback” after the performance, according to the social media post.

The show begins at 8 p.m. ET on Dec. 14 at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre in New York City.
