Chicago area native debuts film about gun violence.

(Zion, IL) – Many students who graduate in the performing arts field may find it challenging to
find a career after graduating. For many people this means applying for internships and working
underpaid and odd jobs to earn a decent income. While this is usually the case, Berylanne Lynch has her
own way of working in the creative field – by directing and producing her very own films and plays that
she writes.
Berylanne Lynch is a native from Zion, IL. She graduated from Illinois State University in 2012
with a B.S. in theatre studies with a concentration in directing and theatre management. She is also a
Zion-Benton Township High School 2008 graduate, and attended courses at the College of Lake County
before transferring to Illinois State in 2009.
As an aspiring artist, she continued to pursue the arts after graduating, despite the difficult
obstacles it may offer. Lynch has directed and produced a short film, “Out of Range” this summer which
opened at Chicago Filmmakers earlier this month and will premiere online for two weeks on October 24th
.
“Out of Range” is about a college student that experiences a powerful coincidence that changes her life.
The 21 minute film was shot in hot spots Chicago, Miggy Smalls Sports Bar in Waukegan IL, and parts of
Zion, IL. The film explores the deep meaning of chance, coincidence, and gun violence within Chicago.
The film will be submitted to the Atlanta Film Festival and the Catlow Local Shorts Film Festival.
Lynch is also currently directing and producing a play this fall at Gorilla Tango Theatre,
Bucktown. “The UnderGround Effect” is a short, whimsical play that explores racism, social norms, and
interracial love in the Black community.
Although she has her hands full with managing two of her own productions, Ms. Lynch is also
pursuing a Master’s in written communication at National-Louis University, Chicago. Her goals include
teaching fundamental writing and theatre courses in the future.
“I believe anyone can break into their field, no matter how challenging. You may not get hired or
paid right away, but you still have to stay focused, remain confident, and basically be your own boss.
Living in a small town without bountiful entertainment or theatre companies unlike Chicago can be hard,
but I believe it can be an advantage as well.” Lynch started her own production company, B-Anne

Productions, in 2013 that is based in Lake County.
