The Addams Family Synopsis
Based on the iconic characters created by legendary cartoonist Charles
Addams, THE ADDAMS FAMILY is an all-new musical comedy starring two-time Tony Award winners Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth as Gomez and Morticia. THE ADDAMS FAMILY

a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family. Yes, Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has a "normal" boyfriend, and for parents Gomez and
Morticia, it's a shocking development that turns the Addams house upside down when they are forced to host a dinner for the young man and his parents.

(The Wild Party), direction and design by Phelim McDermott and Julian Crouch (Shockheaded Peter, The Metropolitan Opera's Satyagraha) and
