Wantagh Middle School Presents 'The Addams Family'

WANTAGH-SEAFORD, NY - From Wantagh School District: Under the direction of Samantha Gordon, vocal director Matthew Carlin and choreographers Olivia Swanson and Adriana Amerueso, Wantagh Middle School’s talented cast and crew drew a packed house during performances of Marshall Brickman’s and Rick Elice’s musical “The Addams Family,” held on March 23 and 24. The school production kept intact the popular story about the frightful family members who delight in the macabre.

On stage Aidan Schroh played the role of Gomez, with Amelia DiBona as Morticia, Leo Marciana as Uncle Fester, Vanessa Sgroi as Grandma Addams, Nicole Tobia as Wednesday, Sean Hill-Hotz as Pugsley, teacher David Cippoletti as Lurch, and Hunter Fasano as Thing. In addition, audiences enjoyed the lyrics from “When
You’re an Addams,” “One Normal Night,” “Move Towards the Darkness” and “What If?”

The show’s success was also due to the artistic talents of the orchestra, under the direction of Danilo Aviles and production and stage managers Kimberly Davis and Karen Kawecki.
