Wheelock Family Theatre: 40 Years and Thriving

On October 2, Wheelock Family Theatre celebrated four decades of entertaining families with a 40th Family Reunion. Billed as “part picnic, part performance, part creative playground,” the reunion, held on the Fenway Campus green, had interactive workshops, WFT trivia and games, a photobooth, WFT T-shirts for sale, and performances from past productions. Actor, director, and composer Jane Staab (center), a theater cofounder and co–artistic director for 33 years, was among the celebrants. Photo by Michael D. Spencer
