Members of the 'Dawson's Creek' cast, including Katie Holmes and James Van Der Beek, to gather for a charity event, performing a script reading session.
In an unexpected turn of events, the original cast of the beloved 90s TV series "Dawson's Creek" will reunite for a live script reading. The event, titled "Dawson's Creek Class Reunion," is scheduled to take place on September 22 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre in New York City.
The reunion will see James Van Der Beek, Katie Holmes, Michelle Williams, and Joshua Jackson return to their iconic roles. Joining them will be Mary Beth Peil, Kerr Smith, Meredith Monroe, and Busy Phillips. The creator of "Dawson's Creek," Kevin Williamson, is among the producers of this special event.
The live reading is in support of the charity "F Cancer," an organisation that creates positive, life-changing experiences for cancer fighters. F Cancer also raises awareness about early cancer detection and prevention. More information about their mission and activities can be found on their website.
James Van Der Beek, who played the titular film nerd character in "Dawson's Creek," was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer last November. His diagnosis was initially dealt with privately, but was revealed by a tabloid, prompting him to open up about his ordeal in People magazine.
In a touching Instagram post, Van Der Beek shared a photo of the core four cast members, set to the opening lyrics of Paula Cole's "I Don't Want to Wait," the theme song of "Dawson's Creek." The event is not an advertisement, but a heartfelt gathering to support a worthy cause.
Tony-nominee Michelle Williams is also a producer of the live reading of "Dawson's Creek." The producer of the live reading of the pilot episode of "Dawson's Creek," supported by Williams and Williamson, is not explicitly named in the provided search results.
"Dawson's Creek" debuted on the WB in 1998 and became a cultural phenomenon, garnering a dedicated fanbase that still cherishes the series today. This live reading promises to be a memorable event for both the cast and the fans, as they come together to support a cause close to Van Der Beek's heart.
