Chesterton High
School Music and Drama departments will present their spring musical, The
Addams Family, on Friday and Saturday, May 8 and 9 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, May
10 at 2:00 p.m. at the CHS Auditorium.
That lovable family
of creepy kooks is alive and well and living in their super-spooky mansion
in Central Park. The Addams family, led by the elegantly gaunt and seemingly
undead Morticia and her ever-devoted husband Gomez, is in turmoil. Their
daughter Wednesday, now 18, finds herself falling in love--a sensation that
is unsettling for both her and her family of endearing misfits. When the
teen invites her new boyfriend, Lucas Beineke, over with his “normal” family
to get better acquainted with the Addams household, comic chaos (including
everything from mixed-up potions to a scorching tango) ensues.
Cast members are:
Sean Puent as Gomez Addams, Diva Bridegroom as Morticia Addams, Taylor Troop
as Wednesday Addams, Lyle Reyes as Pugsley Addams, Anna Reyes as Grandma,
Tanner Fowler as Fester Addams, Wyatt Lee as Lucas Beineke, Jake Williger as
Mal Beineke, Becca Schmiegel as Alice Beineke and Jake Merryman as Lurch.
