"The Addams Family" at The Lewis and Shirley White Theatre

With a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elica, and music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa (“The Wild Party,” “You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown”) “The Addams Family” features an original story embracing the wackiness in every family. Daughter Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, is all grown up now and has sent her parents into a tizzy by falling in love with a “normal” young man from a “respectable” family.

Everything comes to a head when the Addams’ host the boyfriend and his parents for dinner. Zaniness ensues, including dancing ancestors, and all the craziness one would expect from this comical feast of a musical.
