Linton-Stockton Theatre students gathered their dancing shoes and spookiest black and grey attire as they transformed into various well-known characters during their recent performances of “The Addams Family”. Combining humorous one-liners and thoroughly-rehearsed musical numbers fit for the stage with choreographed dance moves, the cast strutted their stuff for three performances over the weekend of April 19 through 21.
