Based on the cartoon strip by Charles Addams, the Addams Family has been adapted into numerous TV shows and movies. In this musical, Wednesday Addams has fallen in love with a \u201cnormal\u201d boy and invites him and his family over for dinner to meet the mysterious and spooky Addams family. When Wednesday shares a secret with her father, Gomez, and begs him not to tell his wife, Morticia, a comedy of errors ensues.<\/p>\n<p>This version of \u201cThe Addams Family\u201d has been adapted to suit the needs of theater during the COVID-19 pandemic. The show has been abridged to a one-act 90-minute production with updated references including social distancing and quarantine. The goal is to have all students in the cast physically present together for the performances, which will then be livestreamed to an at-home audience. If the production cannot be completed in person, the show will be filmed virtually and then broadcast to an at-home audience. Performance dates are scheduled for April 23 and 24 at 7:00 PM with information about the broadcasts forthcoming.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Ashley Brown, the show\u2019s music director, has been creating piano tracks for students to sing along with in addition to teaching music via large group Zoom rehearsals. <strong>Charlie Siguenza \u201914<\/strong> has been working on choreography with the cast that can be adapted to fit the show\u2019s needs whether in person or virtual. \u201cOne of the nice things about working with students over Zoom is the emphasis on facial expressions and subtle movements and really having them pay attention to mannerisms, etc. since when they are on camera their upper body is the focal point,\u201d said Director<strong> Ms. Shannon Winters \u201906<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #014f7f;\"><strong>Senior Reviews Quantum Computing Course<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This school year, Molloy became a partner school with MIT&#8217;s &#8220;The Coding School&#8221; to offer a quantum computing course called Qubit by Qubit (QxQ). The course is an introductory college-level quantum computing course taught by MIT and Oxford quantum scientists in collaboration with IBM Quantum. In the first semester, students learned about the mathematical and algorithmic background of quantum computation. In the second semester, they have been exploring the physics of making measurements using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Recently, MIT researchers demonstrated a very famous experiment regarding two-level quantum systems conducted by Stern and Gerlach in 1922.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/168.62.170.58\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Senior-Spotlight-Brianna-Garrison.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-21789 size-thumbnail\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000; margin: 8px;\" src=\"http:\/\/168.62.170.58\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Senior-Spotlight-Brianna-Garrison-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"><\/a>Senior <strong>Brianna Garrison \u201921<\/strong> shared her thoughts on the course with <em>The Beehive<\/em>: \u201cThe quantum computing course with MIT is so fascinating! In this class we are learning about how concepts in quantum mechanics such as superposition, entanglement, and interference can be utilized to introduce a new&nbsp;way that computers can fundamentally work. Some of the concepts such as entanglement even contradict Einstein\u2019s theory of relativity, proving that there is so much complexity and vastness to the world of physics that we have yet to discover or understand. In this class we are taught by professional coders and physicists, and there are a lot of resources offered to help the students. Speaking of which, there are thousands of other students taking this course from all over the world, and I learn a lot from my extremely diverse group of peers. The subject of quantum computing is not usually introduced until graduate school, and therefore it is an honor and a privilege to study this through Molloy.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-16573\" src=\"http:\/\/168.62.170.58\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Alumni_Updates_v2-1024x52.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"32\"><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/168.62.170.58\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Opal_v_hs.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-21797 size-thumbnail\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000; margin: 8px;\" src=\"http:\/\/168.62.170.58\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Opal_v_hs-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"><\/a>Congratulations to&nbsp;<strong>Opal Vadhan &#8217;11<\/strong>,&nbsp;who&nbsp;announced this week that she has been hired to serve as personal aide to the Vice President of the United States.
