Starting tomorrow is the showing of The Addams Family at the Benedum
The weird and wonderful family comes to devilishly delightful
life in THE ADDAMS FAMILY. This magnificently macabre new musical comedy
is created by Jersey Boys authors Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice,
Drama Desk-winning composer/lyricist Andrew Lippa (The Wild Party),
choreographer Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys) and Olivier Award-winning
director/designers Phelim McDermott & Julian Crouch (Shockheaded
Peter) with creative consultation by four-time Tony Award® winner Jerry
Zaks.This is definitely not the same old song and dance. It’s every parent’s nightmare. Your little girl has suddenly become a young woman, and what’s worse, has fallen deliriously in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family. Yes, Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has a “normal” boyfriend,
and for parents Gomez and Morticia, this shocking development will turn the Addams house downside up.
It’s a family portrait that’s completely off the wall.
