<p>If you have been on social media anytime in the past week, you&rsquo;ve most likely come across the dancing scene video from the hit series &ldquo;Wednesday&rdquo;, which took social media by a storm since it came out and became a viral trend and propelled millions of fans to reenact the bizarre yet charming dance moves that the 20-year-old actress Jenna Ortega performed in episode 4 titled &ldquo;Woe What a Night&rdquo;.</p>

<p>The hit series is directed by the iconic director Tim Burton and is based on the character &ldquo;Wednesday&rdquo; from the 1991&rsquo;s cult-classic &ldquo;The Addams Family&rdquo;. The show follows Wednesday&rsquo;s years as a high school student as she&rsquo;s trying to master her psychic abilities while dealing with high school&rsquo;s usual drama.</p>
<p>Ortega, whose fame skyrocketed after the show&rsquo;s success, revealed that she choreographed the dance routine herself, taking inspiration from the band Siouxsie and the Banshees, Lene Lovich, Bob Fosse&rsquo;s films and footage of goth kids dancing in clubs in the 80s.</p>
<p>Jenna Ortega said in an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-UTjsjslRI">TV Guide,</a> &ldquo;that was interesting, choreographing that, especially because I&rsquo;m not a dancer and Tim completely trusted me and never questioned me at all, which was nice but also scary&rdquo; she continued about her hectic schedule during shooting and how she managed to fit choreographing the dance saying &ldquo;It was a really jam-packed week, we were shooting episode three at the same time so I was learning German&hellip;I was doing a cello piece, there was a lot going on, and about two nights before [The dance sequence] I thought &ldquo;Oh, I said That I will do that and I haven&rsquo;t yet&rdquo;. So I just didn&rsquo;t sleep for two nights and worked and filmed myself, and there were a lot of different versions of what could&rsquo;ve happened but that one seemed the most practical and made the most sense&rdquo;</p>
