A delightfully macabre world!

Who doesn’t love this “kooky” family of characters? They are so iconic, and every single one of them is motivated by love.

So was this cast, and I think it shows.

We were originally slated to do The Addams Family spring of 2020. I was halfway through blocking the show. The cast knew most of the choreography and all of the musical numbers. Then . . . lockdown. It was a disappointment for sure (understatement). But, we moved on.

Two years later, this new cast was absolutely wonderful and made every minute worth revisiting this book and score.

 

 
One of my goals as a director is to make sure every single cast member feels they look their absolute best on stage. Hair, makeup, and costumes must be fabulous. When young actors feel good and taken care of, they are simply more
confident.
