Major: Theatre (BA)
What will you do with a Lynchburg degree? How about starting your own theater company? Wolfbane Productions founder and artistic director Dustin Williams ’05 was a senior when his theatre professor encouraged him to get involved with the whole process in a production of “Into the Woods.”
“One of the biggest things was the freedom to experiment a little bit,” Dustin remembers. “I took a directing class and got the hands-on-ness — that’s not a word — of being involved in every aspect. I wasn’t in tech theatre but got to ask the designer all kinds of questions. I ended up working on the set before rehearsal, and worked on making the trees. The first time I got to work on that side of things, I got to be a practitioner and not just a performer.”
