The Addams Family

7:00 PM
Ticketed
Location:  Whiting Auditorium

The Addams Family is a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family. The magnificently macabre hit musical is based on the characters created by Charles Addams in his single-panel gag cartoons.

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 yet to meet. And if that weren’t upsetting enough, she 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 will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

On the heels of Wednesday, the No. 1 most-watched Netflix show of all time, Big League Productions, Inc. presents The Addams Family, a devilishly delightful musical comedy based on the creepy, kooky characters made famous in film, television and cartoons.

The book, or libretto, for the musical was written by Rick Elice and Marshall Brickman, while music and lyrics were composed by Andrew Lippa.
