In my last Surflight Theatre review, of “An American in Paris,” one of my very few critiques of that wonderful production was the actors’ French accents, saying translating the melodious French language into comparatively clunky English is an almost impossible task.

Well, my first thought upon viewing Surflight’s current mainstage production, “The Addams Family,” was that Austin Jacobs, who plays Gomez, had a ridiculous Spanish accent.
