Carrick-on-Suir Musical Society has announced the lead cast members for its upcoming annual show – The Addams Family, which will be staged at the Strand Theatre from Monday, March 31 to Saturday, April 5.
Filling the shoes of the ghoulishly macarbre Addams family at the centre of the musical comedy will be Eoin Sheehy who plays Gomez, Sandra Power who plays Morticia, Liadhain O’Shea who plays Wednesday and Evan Boland who plays Pugsley.
Caolan Deehy-Power takes on the role of Fester and Irene Malone plays Grandma Addams while Neill Bourke is cast as Lurch.
Other key cast members are Cormack O’Donovan who plays Lucas Beineke, Michael Raggett, who plays Mal Beineke and Jordan Freeman, who plays Alice Beineke. Preparations for the show have been underway since November when the first choral sessions kicked off.
Auditions for the principal roles took place just before Christmas and rehearsals are now in full swing.
The Addams Family musical also includes a large supporting chorus.
The show is based on the famous cartoon characters created by Charles Addams and portrayed in several film and TV productions.
