Fine Arts Association presents The Addams Family as its first production of the 2023-24 theater season. The production opens on September 15 and runs through October 1, 2023.

The Addams Family is a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family. It features an original story about daughter Wednesday, the ultimate princess of darkness from a ghoulish family with an affinity for all things macabre, who falls in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family. And if that’s not upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez must keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia, which is something he’s never done before. Everything changes for the family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

The production, originally produced for Broadway, is based on characters created by Charles Addams and features music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa.

“In keeping with the theme of this musical, we are holding a ‘Spooky Soiree’ on stage immediately following the September 15 opening night performance,” stated David Malinowski, The Roger and Anne Clapp Chair of Performing Arts. “Patrons can party with the cast on stage while enjoying snacks and a cash bar. We encourage attendees to come dressed as their favorite Addams Family member for a chance to win a complete 2023-24 theater season package.”
