This entertaining musical comedy based on the absurdly morbid characters made famous by the kookie 1960s TV series embraces the weird and wacky in every family. At the core of the storyline is Gomez Addams’ worst nightmare: His daughter, Wednesday, raised to be the ultimate princess of darkness has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family! As Wednesday confides this truth to her father, she begs him not to tell her mother. Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything changes for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents. A perfect way to embrace the chill of fall and All Hollow’s Eve.
[PG]: Appropriate for audiences age 8 and over.
