Books, Belonging & Big Questions | Mfoniso Udofia Talks with Natalie Portman

🎭 So excited for Mfoniso Udofia’s Ufot Cycle coming to Boston, starting with Sojourners on November 6 at @huntingtontheatre! This is the very play we read in Book Club, and it was such a powerful experience. 🙌

I loved learning more about Mfoniso’s origin story and the inspiration behind the nine-play cycle—deep, heartfelt, and incredibly important storytelling. If you're in Boston, go see one of her plays! You won’t want to miss it.

📚 Shoutout to @mfudofia for the brilliance and vision.
