Mid-Columbia Musical Theatre is pleased to present its production of The Addams Family–A New Musical!
Based on the beloved characters created by Charles Addams, The Addams Family features an original story, and it’s 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 weren’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 will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s ‘normal’ boyfriend and his parents.
Directed by Chelsea Taylor with Ben Walley as music director, this show is sure to please as it’s packed full of some of our region’s most incredible talent. They will have you laughing and crying right up to the end as they invite you all to “Move Towards the Darkness”.
For when it’s dark enough, we can see the stars.
