“Black is such a happy color,” said Morticia Addams, played by senior
                                                        Jade Adler. A humorous take on a creepy classic, The Addams Family
                                                        introduced itself as a dark romantic comedy. The plot of the show told the
                                                        love story of dark and twisted Wednesday Addams, played by sophomore
                                                        Katelyn Moenning, and sunny straight-laced Lucas Beineke. played by
                                                       junior Robbie McEvoy. The play recounted the trials of their love and how
                                                        they had to meet each other's family. The story is filled with twist and
                                                        turns.
                                                          Wackiness ensues when Uncle Fester, played by junior Jacob Alberico,
                                                        tried to intervene and help fix both families’ relationships while he
                                                        pursued his own love story with the moon. Alberico's performance
                                                        brought the comedy and strangeness of The Addams Family alive. His
                                                        dedication to the show went above and beyond. After all he shaved his
                                                        head for his part in the play and had to wear two fat suits throughout the
                                                        performance.
                                                          When asked how she felt about the performance, Jade Adler had this to
                                                        say, "Oh my god, that was my favorite show that I've ever done. It was so
                                                        much fun." The shows' fantastic performance captivated audiences of all
                                                        ages. The music, the actors, and the scenery matched the musical
                                                        perfectly. Michael O'Brien, who played Gomez Addams, had this to say:
                                                        “I felt that it was very successful. It was a hit and very fun.” When
                                                        questioned about the show, he exclaimed with much enthusiasm, “I would
                                                        do it again in a heartbeat. I felt it was too brief and wish it went on
                                                        longer.” The Addams Family fitted the Halloween season.

                                                        longer."                         "I tried out for
