The Addams Family Cast

As of right now, this is the partial cast for the fall musical. I had only intended to cast Wednesday, Morticia, and Gomez, but you gave such amazing auditions, that I was able to see a few more characters. Those of you that auditioned but don't see your name, that just means I need you to audition again in August. Auditions for the remaining parts will be August 24-26. However, the following individuals should be prepared to rehearse starting August 2nd. We will probably meet at 1:00 PM in the auditorium. I do not have access to the scripts or music yet, and probably won't have access to it until after July. I'll text you using Remind when it arrives. Under the cast list are the song titles. There are numerous karaoke and other versions to listen to, but once our music arrives, I will be distributing them to you via an app on your phone.
