Will Gantt, theater junior, said he first received a taste of theater on a field trip as a child in Alabama. “Our class went to see some play — I don’t even remember what it was — and they served ice cream in little tubs with wooden spoons.” Gantt said. “I thought it was the coolest thing to eat ice cream and watch people play around.” While in high school Gantt said he was really drawn to movies and thought he might try acting after seeing “Good Will Hunting” with Matt Damon in 1997.
