Mrs. Melanie Willis is a beloved teacher at Liberty. She is the director of the school’s theater productions and teaches both theater and public speaking classes. Over the year and half that she’s worked at Liberty, she has directed three shows: You Can’t Beat the House, A Night of Comedy (which included Avoiding the Pitfalls of High School Dating, 13 Ways to Screw Up Your College Interview, and Going to School), and Liberty’s first musical, Little Women. The stage manager for Little Women felt like Mrs. Willis deserved a sign of appreciation for all of the impact she has had on the lives of students at Liberty.
