The cast of Dawson’s Creek – James Van Der Beek, Katie Holmes, Michelle Williams and Joshua Jackson will reunite for a live script reading of the show’s pilot next month on Broadway in New York City in support of Cancer and Van Der Beek.
Van Der Beek, who opened up about being diagnosed with colorectal cancer last November, shared a snapshot of the core four cast members to his Instagram on Wednesday, set to the opening lyrics of Paula Cole’s I Don’t Want to Wait, which famously served as the teen soap’s theme song.
The post included the quote, if we were truly meant to be, then we will find a way back to each other.
The event, titled Dawson’s Creek Class Reunion, will take place on September 22 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.
Van Der Beek says in November that he was battling stage 3 cancer, which he said he had been dealing with privately until a tabloid shared plans to run a story about it and he later opened up at length to People magazine about his ordeal.
Dawson’s Creek debuted on the WB in 1998 and followed a group of teens in fictional Capeside, Massachusetts as they navigated friendship, love and ambitions in school and beyond, led by Van Der Beek’s titular film nerd character. The show veritably launched the careers of the main foursome.
