The play “Dearly Departed” will be performed @ 7:00pm, April 8th, 2023 as the 1st alumni show ever done at Westside High School. Join us along with other pre and post grads of Westside as we sort through this crazy show! Tickets are $3.00 for students and $5.00 for adults and will be sold at the door the evening of the show at the WHS Fine Arts Center.
The story takes place in the Baptist backwoods of the Bible Belt, the beleaguered Turpin family proves that living and dying in the South are seldom tidy and always hilarious. Despite their earnest efforts to pull themselves together for their father’s funeral, the Turpins’ other problems keep overshadowing the solemn occasion. Amidst the chaos, the Turpins turn for comfort to their friends and neighbors, an eccentric community of misfits who just manage to pull together and help each other through their hours of need, and finally, the funeral.

Celebrate the wackiness in every family with our performers! Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family whom her parents have never met. She confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before– keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia.
