Creepy, Kooky, and Full of Heart, The Addams Family on Stage

In partnership with Next Generation Arts Council
Book by Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice
Music & Lyrics by Andrew Lippa
Based on Characters Created by Charles Addams

The Addams family must come to terms with the changes that come as children grow up and begin making their own choices. Family patriarch Gomez finds himself uncomfortably keeping a secret for his daughter Wednesday, while wife Morticia prepares to host the "normal" family of Wednesday's new love. Meanwhile, other members of the household grapple with shifting family dynamics.

Perfect for the Halloween season, this production overflows with the Addams' trademark wacky charm, but it also has a surprising amount of heart as Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, and Pugsley discover that life's changes don't have to weaken the family bond.

Online ticket sales end two hours prior to performance. Tickets may also be purchased in person at the Arts Barn box office or by contacting the Arts Barn.
