Hunter Malvitz, who performed as Gomez Addams in Southern Door High School’s production of The Addams Family, has been recognized for his Outstanding Performance in a Lead Role.

The recognition came from the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center’s 2022-23 Center Stage High School Theater Program. Approximately 2,000 students participated in the program, in which a team of adjudicators scored performances and provided feedback to determine recognition recipients. 

Through an extensive audition process, Malvitz also has the chance to be one of two nominees to attend the Jimmy Awards/the National High School Musical Theatre Awards in June in New York City.

For his recognition, Malvitz will perform as a soloist at a Tony Awards–style showcase May 6 at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center. The Jimmy Award selections will take place during the showcase.
