In true Moses Sumney fashion the past days have been a captivating blend of stage artistry media headlines and a touch of behind-the-scenes Hollywood intrigue. Just last night, as part of this season’s Shakespeare in the Park at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park, Moses Sumney took the stage as Feste in Twelfth Night, drawing enthusiastic acclaim for transforming the classic clown into a rapping and singing troubadour according to Film Festival Traveler. The performance, running through September 14, sees Moses decked in Oana Botez’s stunning costumes and commands the kind of curtain call that only New York’s theater energy can deliver.
This is more than a one-off stage cameo. According to NYC for Free, Sumney’s casting as Feste was announced a week prior, and the buzz is bona fide — a rare intersection of indie music and classic theater done right. Audiences and critics alike have been celebrating his performance across social media, calling it both inventive and magnetic, though specifics on viral clips or trending hashtags over the last 24 hours are still coming in.
There’s also Hollywood momentum. Variety and ScreenRant report that Moses Sumney’s 2024 film breakout in MaXXXine has led to an intriguing new development: director Ti West is enlisting Sumney as part of the creative circle for Bloodlust, a fresh dark comedy for Prime Video. While Sumney’s exact role is not public, industry insiders speculate it will be another high-visibility part, likely building on his distinct screen presence.
On the recording front Sumney has not announced any new music or surprise releases as of today. His second album græ continues to pick up mention in indie circles and on fan accounts but no official word of fresh tracks or collaborations is out there. That said his appearance in Twelfth Night has reignited conversation across music blogs about his genre-defying vocal power.
Business-wise there is no sign Sumney is launching any new label or art project at this moment. Socially he’s keeping it low key, with his most recent posts centering on performance snapshots and enigmatic comments about finding new ways to express “joy through contradiction” — classic Sumney.
