Review: Addams Family at at the Morrison Center

by Michael Strickland My days of growing up with the old Adams family show are among my fond memories. The weird and wonderful family came to devilishly delightful life in The Addams Family. This magnificently macabre musical comedy was created by Jersey Boys authors Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice, Drama Desk Award winner Andrew Lippa (The Wild Party), choreographer Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys), and Olivier Award-winning original directors and designers Phelim McDermott & Julian Crouch (Shockheaded Peter) with direction by four-time Tony Award® winner Jerry Zaks. The show delighted and spooked the audience on Dec. 14 at the Morrison Center, Boise State University. McDermott and Crouch’s sets and costumes fostered both charm and tremendous humor.

Proven Success With AXS CEO Troy McClain: Revisiting the First Season of Donald Trump's Apprentice

by Michael Strickland There is nothing like going to work every day at a club filled with high energy, motivation, success and extra smiles and joy to go around. I first met AXS CEO Troy McClain a few weeks ago. I can safely say that I am amazed at this experience of working at his awesome company. With Donald Trump's popularity booming, it is fascinating to take a look at this Idaho legend who first rose to the big stage on one of Trump's reality TV shows. "Who would have thought a country boy from Idaho could go on national television, be seen by 28 million Americans every week and still appreciate the simple things like fly fishing on a backcountry stream?" Troy's official website reads. "That is Troy McClain. Troy’s rise to prominence happened as he climbed Donald Trump’s ladder on NBC’s 'The Apprentice,' advancing all the way to the finals." Troy is a ball of energy and enthusiasm who seeks to utilize his success to Give First to his
