The Addams Family Musical

They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky,” and they’re coming to Costa Mesa Playhouse!

Yes, it’s the Tony-nominate musical “The Addams Family,” opening on Halloween weekend beginning on October 28 and running through November 20, 2016.

This delightfully ghoulish and magnificently macabre musical features classic characters created by cartoonist Charles Addams, with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elise.

It’s a time of crisis for the Addams family. Gomez and Morticia’s daughter, Wednesday, is growing up. She’s now 18-years-old and has fallen in love with a “normal” boy, and has invited him and his parents over for dinner. In one fateful, hilarious night, secrets are disclosed, relationships are tested, and the Addams family must face up to the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations — change.

Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 p.m.

Tickets are $20 general admission and $18 for students and seniors. Discounts available for groups of 10 or more. The first Friday preview performance, October 28, is $18 for all seats. Gala Night performance on Saturday, October 29 is $22 for general admission, and $20 for students and seniors and includes a post-show Halloween party.
