Ta, Ta, Ta, Ta opens the famous theme song from the original hit film and television show,  Addams Family.

This week, ILS’s Drama Club debuted its own take on the Addams Family which they will  perform until October 29.

This show took two months to prepare which seems lengthy, though according to club members, performances normally take over three months.

Rehearsals, which lasted three hours, were held at ILS Monday-Thursday.

In total, some cast members speculated they practiced over 200 hours.

Fun Fact: The stage version features the same characters as the film one except this one is centered on the character, Wednesday, and how she found love.

I had the honor of  this show myself, and I really enjoyed it, it was really entertaining and the cast was spectacular

I myself have never seen another story how the Addams Family, I have always watched the original, so getting to see something new was amazing

Miguel has been in two shows, The Addams Family, and The Sound of Music

He felt amazing on stage

Miguel had a great experience but he did enjoy the end, because he had done something challenging
