Werribee Secondary College’s Joy Bevan Theatre will be transformed into the spooky home of The Addams Family ahead of opening night of the school’s latest production.
Students have been perfecting their lines, learning dance routines and music and creating sets ahead of the show, which will be staged on July 24 and 25 at 7.30pm.
Werribee Secondary College performing arts leader Jayden Anderson said the students chose The Addams Family as this year’s production from a list of potential options.
“The students have been working on this musical since the start of the year with great enthusiasm,” he said.
“This is one of the first musicals where the whole school is involved. The art department helping with sets, the English department participating in advertising, the design technology department creating props for us use.
“Our main cast have been working hard to learn lines, songs and dances in order to portray the characters in a recognisable way while also putting their own flair on the character.
“The ensemble cast have worked as a team to make sure the ancestors of the Addams keep some normality within the family.”
The performance will be the first to be staged in the school’s revamped theatre, which features state-of-the-art lights and sound system and a new projector to display backdrops.
