Joe Biden Makes Rare Public Appearance at Broadway's Record-Breaking 'Othello' Premiere

The former president, joined by Jill Biden, attended the star-studded event as the Bidens prepare to re-enter the political spotlight ahead of the 2026 elections.

Joe and Jill Biden attended the March 23 Broadway premiere of 'Othello,' featuring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal in lead roles.
This marks one of Joe Biden's first public outings since leaving the presidency in January 2025.
The Bidens are reportedly working on their memoirs and planning to support Democrats in the 2026 Congressional elections.
The production of 'Othello' has set a financial record for non-musical previews, earning $2.8 million in one week, but has received mixed critical reviews.
Theater productions featuring major film stars, like 'Othello,' are trending on Broadway, driving high ticket sales despite some criticism of their reliance on celebrity appeal.
