Book by MARSHALL BRICKMAN and RICK ELICE. Music and Lyrics by ANDREW LIPPA. Based on Characters Created by Charles Addams.
THE ADDAMS FAMILY is a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, featuring an original story and every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family– a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before– keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything changes for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.
Directed by Elizabeth Odell and Jane Verrall. The performance will last for 2 hours 20 minutes including an interval, and may include stobe lighting and haze smoke. Age restriction 8+.
