Name: Jay Reeves

Role: Cory

Hometown: Newark, New Jersey

What about Fences speaks to you as an artist?: Fences speaks to me in many different ways. The everyday love dynamic of a family rocks my soul.

What’s your biggest challenge when taking on this role?: Not listening to my Pops when he’s talking. Troy Maxson is a tough man.

Favorite role (that you’ve played or that you want to play?): I’d hope to one day play Spiderman or Static Shock. I’d save the world as we know it today.

When you have a five minute break during rehearsal, what do you spend that time doing?: Easy one haha! I spend my time doing football tricks and tossing the pigskin.
