Friday, July 7, 2017 – Lincoln, NH – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Jean’s Playhouse Presents The Addams Family
The Addams Family, The Musical written by playwrights Rick Elice and Marshall Brickman and composed by Andrew Lippa is a musical comedy about America’s favorite creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky family going through typical family challenges: growing up and changing.
Wednesday Addams falls in love with a ‘normal’ boy from Ohio, so the family decides to host a dinner for the boy and his ‘normal’ family. The Addams family seek out their ancestors to see if this ‘normal’ boy can live up to their unique Addams family values. As the night unfolds, we see just how far the Addams family will go for love.
