Local theatre lovers have been DYING to see this production, and the wait is almost over! They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky… and they’re about to take over the Nordonia stage! Closing out Nordonia Drama’s first thrilling season of three mainstage productions, the Broadway musical sensation The Addams Family will haunt the Nordonia stage April 11th through 13th, bringing the beloved and bizarrely enchanting first family of comedy to spine-tingling life.
From the brilliant minds behind Jersey Boys – Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice – and Drama Desk Award-winning composer/lyricist Andrew Lippa comes a deliciously dark musical adventure. Watch as the frightfully delightful world of Gomez, Morticia, Uncle Fester, Grandma, Wednesday, Pugsley and Lurch materialize before your very eyes in this all-new story, based on the iconic characters created by cartoonist Charles Addams. The magnificently macabre family faces their most terrifying challenge yet when outsiders dare to come to dinner, catapulting them into one unforgettable night that will forever alter their shadowy existence!
The extraordinary cast of 33 is commanded by Ezekiel Rayle and Aubrey Spinetti, who will bewitch audiences as the passionate Gomez and the hauntingly elegant Morticia Addams. Camille Laviano transforms into the deadpan Wednesday, while Nolah Walton embodies the mischievous Pugsley, and Benjamin Marchant illuminates the stage as the lovable Uncle Fester. The captivating cast is completed by Caeden Bolling, Ella Bozan, Zion Fountain, London Chapman, and Liam Bolling. Behind the curtain, another 50 dedicated students toil tirelessly in the shadows as members of the crews, running tech, conjuring music in the orchestra, and crafting macabre magic through makeup, hair, and costumes.
