Last year, Addams Family was the first production, since Les Mis, that pretty much sold out almost every night it ran at our high school. The word of mouth was strong and the audiences ate it up. The kids may not have known the characters well, but they had fun with it; the music is catchy; the book is funny and they had a great time.
We did Almost, Maine and Addams Family last year - both were very, very well received by the audiences and the kids. That's why they're popular - the kids enjoy performing them and they sell tickets. I wish there were more plays like Almost, Maine - relatable for the kids, entertaining for parents, grandparents and students who attend. |
