My Approach                                                                                 

Lily's approach to stage work as a director reflects a passionate dedication to collaboration, inclusivity, and the transformative power of storytelling. Her directing journey began as a student, directing and assisting on various productions. She has also gained valuable experience in stage management, working as both a stage manager and an assistant. These roles allowed her to deepen her understanding of the intricacies of theatrical productions, refine her craft, and learn from the diverse perspectives of other directors. 

My directing philosophy is built on inclusivity, collaboration, and creating a space where all voices feel valued. I believe theatre has the power to challenge, inspire, and spark introspection, often exploring themes of isolation and human connection. I aim to create work that resonates deeply, fostering meaningful conversations long after the performance ends. 

Education

I blend artistic creativity with practical expertise, bringing a unique perspective to theatre-making. With a BS in Management and as I complete my final semester of a BFA in Theatre Directing at Belmont University, I’ve developed both the artistic vision and logistical skills necessary to bring productions to life. My education has equipped me not only to craft engaging and thought-provoking work but also to navigate the financial and organizational challenges of theatre. I believe compelling storytelling and effective leadership go hand in hand, and I strive to harness both as strengths to create meaningful art.
