Houston Alumni Go to the Theater

February 06, 2008

Members of the Houston Alumni Chapter attended a theatrical production of Jersey Boys at Sarofim Hall in Houston, Texas on Saturday, January 19.  The musical, which chronicles the Four Seasons’ rise to fame, transported alumni back to the rock-filled days of the ‘60s when some of them were college students.

After the show, alumni met at the nearby Arista Restaurant for dinner and continued to reminisce about old times.  For many, this was a welcome chance to share stories about their experiences as students at St. John’s.  “This was a great opportunity to be with the alumni,” shared Mary Jo Black ’80L.

Attendees appreciated the chance to get together and expressed the desire to attend future events like this one.  “What a wonderful show,” commented Edward Millin ’52C.  “We all enjoyed each other’s company and I look forward to more events like my next reunion at St. John’s.”

The Houston Alumni Chapter stays active with several events each year which include a beach party and dinner.
