The Addams Family is a comical feast embracing the wackiness in every family. It features an original story, one of every father’s nightmare. Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a young man from a good family. If that wasn’t upsetting enough, she confides in her father (Gomez) begging him not to tell her mother (Morticia). Gomez must do something he’s never done before–keep a secret from his wife.
The music and lyrics of The Addams Family were composed by Andrew Lippa, with the book written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. The score combines various musical styles, including Broadway show tunes, rock, and even tango, reflecting the diverse personalities and quirks of the Addams family members.
Content Advisory – Warning: The Addams Family Musical is a laugh-out-loud extravaganza that may cause fits of uncontrollable giggles. Parental guidance is suggested for its wickedly funny humor, adult innuendo, scenes that involve hilariously twisted torture, and ghostly apparitions. Prepare to be thoroughly entertained and leave with a smile that lasts for days. Side effects may include sore cheeks, a newfound love for all things Addams, and the urge to snap your fingers.
