🎭✨ Two Broncos, one Off-Broadway stage.
2025 WMU Theatre alum Aniya Thompson just made her Off-Broadway and NYC debut in Heathers the Musical, and she didn't walk into that rehearsal room alone! Fellow alum Brian Martin, the show's associate choreographer, was rooting for her even before she moved to the city. 🎉

That's the WMU Theatre alumni network in action: Broncos showing up for Broncos, from Kalamazoo to New York and everywhere in between. 💛
