Salina South High School graduate Nathan Tyson, once a familiar face in local theater as actor and director, has shifted to writing. He earned his music theater degree at Southwest Missouri State University and has been accepted to NYU Tisch School of the Arts, one of 12 composers and 12 lyricists admitted yearly.
