Episode 4: Leading the Legacy — Kwofe Coleman and the Future of The Muny
In this episode of What's New in the Lou podcast, Alexis sits down with Kwofe Coleman, President and CEO of The Muny, the nation’s oldest and largest outdoor musical theatre, now celebrating its 107th season in St. Louis.
From starting as an usher in 1998 to becoming the first Black president in The Muny’s storied history, Kwofe’s journey is one of passion, purpose, and perseverance. He shares how his love of theatre and deep commitment to community have shaped his leadership.
We talk about what The Muny means to generations of St. Louisans, the behind-the-scenes work it takes to keep a century-old institution thriving, and why representation and outreach are key to its future.
It’s a powerful conversation about legacy, leadership, and the magic of musical theatre under the stars.
