10-22-21 Kyle had bid over the summer for backstage passes to a Moonlight Musicals play and won, so we were able to use them for The Addams Family!!  The director Mr. Sallee was awesome at coordinating our backstage experience.  We arrived early, ate dinner, had a tour of the stage, backstage, and the booth all before the show even started.  He allowed Jacen to come up after intermission and do one of the light changes.  Then afterwards we got to get a picture on stage with the whole cast.  Then we got to go backstage again and see how a show is shut down for the night.  It was an awesome experience!!!
