Katie’s daughter Suri Cruise , whom she shares with ex-husband Tom Cruise, 62, came home from her freshman year at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh to see her mother perform.

Another fan commented: ‘This is so 90s,’ while a third added: ‘So fun! All of my college throwbacks in one place.’

Katie attended Colombia University for a time before she was offered her role in Dawson’s Creek.
‘I remember being this age, this time of beginnings. It’s exciting to learn about yourself, and I loved that time, so it makes me happy to think about it like that,’ she told Town & Country.
