About the show: THE ADDAMS FAMILY, is a comical feast embracing the wackiness in every family, featuring an original story and it’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM

Book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

Broadway's greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and one of the funniest musicals ever written. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a nonstop laugh fest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful courtesan for his young master, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two! This unforgettable, hysterical musical allows a terrific ensemble of comedic actors to shine – "something for everyone, a comedy tonight!"

Full schedule is January 10, 11, 17, 18, 24, 31, February 7, 14, 21, 23, 24, 25, 26 with performances February 27, 28 and March 1. This immersive program is for young actors age 13 to 18 years old.
