The East Rockaway School District has confirmed that the 2024-2025 musical is The Addams Family! Last year, Matilda was performed on two different nights to packed houses! While doing the musical, many have built memories along the way, from cast members and crew to the pit and many more. For example, Megan Acuti has been in every musicals since 4th grade, and each year has been filled with many special memories. She says, “My favorite parts from last year’s musical were dress rehearsals and hanging out with my best friends.” Ellie Nowaksoki was a part of the stage crew last year and will be doing the same again. She says, “I loved painting the sets and putting it all together the day of the show.” Trey Buckman was also a part of the show last year, and he says, “Nobody was mean or made fun of you when you messed up your dance or lines or you sang the wrong lyrics. They were all there for you.” These are just a few of the many cast, crew, and pit members that have made many memories last year doing the musical.
