Graduates of the drama school
will gather for Reunion Weekend

Alumni of the School of Drama will return to campus for two days of theater, panel discussions and reminiscences with old friends and colleagues during Reunion Weekend, Friday and Saturday, May 7 and 8.

The event will bring together School of Drama alumni in every discipline dating back to 1951 through last year's graduating class, as well as the current faculty and staff of the school and the Yale Repertory Theatre.

Highlights of the weekend will include panels on topics ranging from the actor/manager to new technologies for stage design, new directions in playwriting and television as home theater; a "State of the School" address by Dean James Bundy; a discussion with former theater critic Frank Rich of The New York Times; a directing practicum; a euchre tournament; an exhibition of current design students' works; and a presentation of scenes by the graduating acting class.

Reunion Weekend 2004 is sponsored by Hudson Scenic Studio, Rose Brand Inc., and Schuler Shook.

School of Drama alumni who are interested in attending the reunion can obtain more information online at www.yale.edu/drama/reunion, by phone at (800) YSD-CUES and via e-mail at ysd.alumni@yale.edu.
