America's Favorite Creepy, Kooky Family, the Addams Family, Visits America’s favorite creepy, kooky family, the Addams Family, visits Leavenworth for Halloween View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture View Picture You know the song, so snap along… da da da dum (snap snap); da da da dum (snap snap); da da da dum, da da dum da da da dum (snap snap)..“They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky; they’re all together ooky, The Addams Family…” Ah, yes, just in time for some Halloween celebration, America’s favorite dysfunctional, ghoulish family visits the Hollywood Theatre in Leavenworth, Kansas to perform for large audiences with “The Addams Family–The Musical.” All the favorite characters from the 1960s TV show are there–Lurch, Gomez, Morticia, cousin ITT, Thing, Grandmama, Pugsley and Wednesday. But, now, the two children have grown up Pugsley and Wednesday has met a young man and wants to get married. The problem is she wants her parents’ approval to marry a “normal” man. So, she invites him and his family to a quaint family dinner. What could possibly go wrong? Well, this is The Addams Family, and they do differ a bit from the norm. But all is well, right? Well, not exactly. Gomez does not like the idea. Morticia frowns on the idea. Pugsley is jealous and fearful of losing his sister. Uncle Fester unveils his new love, and Grandmama’s potions and specialty herbal creations could jeopardize the nuptials. It’s all fun and games…yes, games–especially “Full Disclosure” where intimate and innermost thoughts and desires spring fourth. For “ The Addams Family” director Nino Casisi selected a score of wonderful voices for this production. Daniel Kooser as Gomez possesses a beautiful voice and plays his part with dashing flourishes reminiscent of John Astin’s original Gomez. Ashley Botts as Wednesday displays her vocal prowess in several numbers. Mackenzie Cross also belts her numbers with authority. In Act II, Rebeckah Ankrom displays her strong, clear soprano voice. The strongest performers in the show are Kooser, Botts, and Michael Junker as Uncle Fester. In the musical, Uncle Fester takes on a larger part than in the original series. As such he creates a nice comedy part in the show. He steals Act II with his song to the moon. All characters are good and strong characters and Casisi melds them into a tight performance that lights up the audience. No one character is unimportant. They all work well as an ensemble. The show is fun for all ages and a guaranteed hit. Daniel Kooser as Gomez; Mackezie Cross as Morticia; Michael Juncker as Uncle Fester; Mona Discavage as Grandmama; Aston Botts as Wednesday; Brian Lee as Pugsley; Shawn Beuchat as Lurch; Paul Hudalla as Mal Beineke; Rebecah Ankrom, Alice Beineke; Lane Dickinson, as Lucas Beineke; Toni Hudalla as Cusin ITT. Members of the ensemble are: Sara Barber, Maggie Bell, Gary Linhart, Brian Resch, Rachel Szmed, Kimberly Wood, Lexi Wood. Along with the cast is the production crew headed by director Nino Casisi. Joining him are: Anthony J. Gassbarre III, Michelle Allen McIntire, Anna Leigh Nissen. Time is running out to see “The Addams Family” so go to the Hollywood Theatre to secure your seats.

  • GUNSMOKE TV CAST and DETAILS Premiered
    GUNSMOKE TV CAST AND DETAILS Premiered: September 10, 1955, on CBS Rating: TV-PG Premise: This landmark adult Western centered on Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City. John Wayne turned down the lead, suggesting James Arness (who remained for its entire run). Originating on radio (with William Conrad as Dillon), it moved to TV in September 1955. Its popularity spawned a number of copycats, but none would enjoy the longevity (and few the consistent quality) of this classic. Airing for 20 years, it's TV's longest running prime-time drama (a record that `Law & Order' is currently chasing). Gunsmoke Cast • James Arness : Marshal Matt Dillon • Milburn Stone : Dr. Galen `Doc' Adams • Amanda Blake : Kitty Russell • Dennis Weaver : Chester Goode • Ken Curtis : Festus Haggen • Burt Reynolds : Quint Asper • James Nusser : Louie Pheeters • Charles Seel : Barney Danches • Howard Culver : Howie Culver • Tom Brown : Ed O'Connor • John Harper : Percy Crump • Dabbs Greer : Mr. Jonus • George Selk : Moss Grimmick • Hank Patterson : Hank Miller • Glenn Strange : Sam • Sarah Selby : Ma Smalley • Ted Jordan : Nathan Burke • Roger Ewing : Clayton Thaddeus `Thad' Greenwood • Roy Roberts : Mr. Bodkin • Woody Chamblis : Mr. Lathrop • Buck Taylor : Newly O'Brien • Charles Wagenheim : Halligan • Pat Hingle : Dr. John Chapman • Fran Ryan : Miss Hannah Gunsmoke Credits • Sam Peckinpah : Screenwriter Gunsmoke Directors • Harry Horner : Director Gunsmoke Guest Cast • Aaron Saxon : Basset • Aaron Spelling : Weed Pindle • Abraham Sofaer : Harvey Easter • Adam West : Hall

  • Gomez Addams Is the Patriarch of the Addams Family, Created By
    Gomez Addams is the patriarch of The Addams Family, created by cartoonist Charles Addams for The New Yorker magazine in the 1930s, and subsequently portrayed in television, film and stage. In Charles Addams's original cartoons, Gomez was the nameless patriarch of the Family. He had a somewhat grotesque appearance, with a tubby body, a snub-nose, a crooked tooth and a receding chin. He was often depicted reading in the den or lounging on the windowsill. Gomez—as with all of the members of the family—had no given name. When The Addams Family 1964 television series was being developed, Charles Addams suggested naming the character either Repelli or Gomez. Addams left the final choice up to portrayer John Astin, who chose Gomez. Because "Gómez" is usually recognized as a family name in Spanish-speaking countries, in Hispanic America the character's name was changed to "Homero" ("Homer"). Like the other members of the family, Gomez's personality became largely codified by the television series. Gomez is of Castilian extraction. John Astin had long sessions with Addams and series producer David Levy, who gave him free rein in developing the character. Enlarging on Addams' description of Gomez as a Latin lover type, Astin suggested the eye- rolling, pencil moustache, and ardent devotion to Morticia. • He spends $1000 per month on cigars, and he is an accomplished juggler and knife-thrower. • He loves crashing toy trains and diving for crabs on Halloween. • When he wishes to know the time he will pull a pocket watch from the breast pocket of his coat (the chain is attached to the lapel) while simultaneously checking a wrist watch.

  • Cary Grant ~ 68 Films
    Cary Grant ~ 68 Films Cary Grant is one of the most consistent stars from the Golden Age of the Hollywood Studio System. Perhaps more than any other actor, he understood that what he was presenting to the public was an image. Quite famously, he has been quoted as saying, "Everybody wants to be Cary Grant. Even I want to be Cary Grant." What this means for fans of the legendary actor is that when we sit down and watch one of his films, good or bad, we know what we can expect of Cary Grant. His long-lasting appeal is down to his striking good looks, his dashing poise and a natural gift for both romance and comedy. Cary Grant can make you laugh even while he sweeps you off your feet. Archibald "Archie" Leach was born on 18 January 1904 at 15 Hughenden Road in the Bristol suburb of Horfield. He was the second child of Elias and Elsie Leach (their first having died in 1900). His father worked as a tailor's presser at a clothes factory while his mother was from a family of shipwrights. Archie had an unhappy upbringing. His father was an alcoholic and his mother suffered from clinical depression. His father placed her in a mental institution and first told the nine-year-old that she had gone away on a "long holiday" and later that she had died. When Archie was ten, his father remarried and started a new family that did not include young Archibald. Little is known about how he was cared for, or by whom.
