A Shared Stage Productions’ performance of The Addams Family at The Kate in Old Saybrook entertained three sold-out crowds on May 18, 19, and 20.

Starring a unified cast of performers from the shoreline theater community and Vista Life Innovations, a post-secondary program supporting the personal success of individuals with disabilities, this production directed by Martin Marchitto brought together 45 Vista students and members and 26 community members—including the cast, crew, production team, and volunteers.

The Addams Family marked Vista’s fifth all-abilities musical production and the first to debut under Vista’s recently established performing arts program, A Shared Stage Productions.

The production was sponsored by Peach Pit Foundation, The Madison Foundation, Cornerstone Construction Services, Community Foundation of Middlesex County, Guilford Foundation, Guilford Savings Bank, Swan Funeral Home, Farmers Insurance, the Lee Family, the Wrotnowski Family, Bruce Baber, and Laurie Pilcher.
