Lurch may be known as a mute, but he certainly has lots to say when it comes to writing! This towering mute has been shambling around the house forever. He is not a very good butler, but a faithful one. He is often sent to pick the awful herbs from the garden, for instance, but will often forget the most important ingredient of all, say Eye of Newt. He is shame-faced about his oversight and the object of good-natured ridicule from the family. The children are his favorites and he guards them against good influences at all costs. One eye is opaque, the scanty hair is damply clinging to his narrow flat head. He will gladly undertake to dump boiling oil on the carol singers, but generally the family regards him as something of a joke.
The cast of THE ADDAMS FAMILY is set to head into the studio on April 19th to record the show's previously announced cast recording produced by Decca Broadway. The cast recording is set to be released this June.
