Live Before We Die (Tango) - The Addams Family 

"It's the last thing I try before C H L O R A F O R M"

This gives me so much post production nostalgia, omg. The entire accompaniment on the tango may or may not be the sexiest piece of orchestral music I've ever heard XD

Did this show my senior year. Don't think I've ever missed another production this much or this long, honestly.

“creature of constant surprises-YOU HAVE LEGS!” my theatre group is trying to convince our director to do addams family in the spring!

I love this song! I got Morticia in the play this year. Super excited to practice this song!

I played Lurch and our director wanted me to be part of the tango, the audience loved seeing me dance with the ancestors

my schools doing the production this year and i’m loving the dance, mainly because our choreographer has used some of the ensemble to join unlike another school near us. So some of the ensemble are doing the tango with mortica and gomez and then some other ensemble once everyone goes off there’s like a small type of flamenco and tango mixed for another group and then the drop of mortica at the end gives me chills

Shout out to everyone here because they’re school is doing this musical

I love how a tango turns into a fencing duel lol

I was Morticia for my school musical, it was so much fun!!!

Tango starts at 2:47

Let's live before die.. lets laugh before we cry Let's hold each other tight and dance If I have caused you pain It's easy to explain Come fill me with delight and dance My love, my life Forever you will be But Wednesday's life That too is part of me Two women I adore And swore to suffer for Let's end this tug of war, and dance

This dance was my favorite to be in as an ancestor! I’m in my room just dancing by myself lol. Ah, the beauty of muscle memory!

I did this show and was an ancestor and was in loads of the songs and I miss it so muchhhh an amazing show :)

I play Gomez and there is a lot of lines but it’s pretty cool tho cuz I get to flex to the cast that I have a butt load of line hehe. And Gomez has the most coolest songs.

im morticia and i love the tango so much it's so fun !!!!

I'm Very exited to practice this song because I do a summer theater program that runs for kids from going into 4th grade and going into 10th grade and I am going into 10th grade and this program is doing Addams family an I was chosen to be Gomez. I have been doing this program for 7 years half my life I am the final Original member left. This is my final year and I am very Happy to be able to go out with a bang, The cast that I am doing it with is full of my best friends and It will be very emotional at the end of the program not being able to perform with them anymore. These musicals have brought many good memories I will cherish for the rest of my life. To all My friends thank you for all you support and let's Live Before we die!! Lets cherish the time we have left. (Get it I put a song pun in this)

Update, I’m Morticia now!

Bro this song hit, I got to play Gomez this year . Good stuff!

This was such a great first production to play trumpet for.

Let’s live before we die, laugh before we cry, hold eachother tight, and dance, if I have caused you pain it’s easy to explain, come fill me with delight and dance, my love my life , forever you will be, but Wednesdays life that too is part of me, two women I adore and swore to suffer for, let’s end this tug of war and dance, please stay right where you are and dance, you’re more than that by far so dance, the place we’re in can never be what was, till we begin to do what dancing does , my darling I was bad bad husband and bad dad instead of being sad, alone were lost and drifting out to see , but side by side were gloomy as can be, as gloomy as can be , morticia I was wrong I knew it all along forgive me with a song and dance

miss the production xx
