    You do not attend a showing of The Addams Family to be moved or inspired; you go for laughs and fun. And when you have a cast as talented as the one at CM Performing Arts Center’s Noel S. Ruiz Theatre, you will exit the theatre thoroughly entertained.

Forget pretty in pink, this dark comedy is beautiful in black and far more sadistic than its successors. The film bravely takes on the topic of teenage suicide and the politics involved in climbing the social ladder. Winona Ryder portrays the smart yet cynical Veronica Sawyer, a junior at Westerberg High who has recently risen to the top.…
