STANFORD IMPROVISORS

Simps 35th Reunion 2026

SImpAlums exists to connect, support, and sustain the spirit of the Stanford Improvisers—on campus and beyond—while honoring and extending Patricia Ryan Madson’s legacy.

We gather online quarterly and reunite in person after major events, cultivating community across generations of SImps.

Everything we do is designed to further the playful, generous, and transformative work that began with Patricia—and carrying it forward, together.

QUARTERLY ONLINE GATHERINGS

  • Goal: Maintain regular touch-points for connection, sharing, and updates.

  • Rotating facilitators or themes (e.g. “What’s bringing you joy?” or “Favorite improv game lately”)

  • Opportunity to share updates on reunions, funding, and alumni news

  • Zoom logistics are shared before each meeting
