Theatre and Dance Alumni
Homecoming
The Department hosts a Homecoming reception for our alumni each year. If you are not able to join us for Homecoming, please consider remembering your time at W&M with a donation that will support student learning in Theatre and Dance. Your contribution - on its own, or combined with the contributions of other friends of the department - will help us create the best possible environment for our students. Your support makes a difference!
This year's Homecoming will take place in the newly renovated Phi Beta Kappa Memorial Hall on Saturday, October 18, 2025. More information will be announced soon.
