Presented by Rogers City Community Theatre: They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and ooky! The Addams Family musical has something for everyone—great songs and dances, a love story, all our favorite Addams characters and of course some macabre humor from our first family of dark comedy!
Tickets are available at the door (first come, first served). For more information regarding tickets contact Pennie Hoeft at 989-733-0178.
The Addams Family: A New Musical Comedy is a musical worthy of the characters created by Charles Addams. The award winning team of Marshall Brickman, Rick Elice, and lyricist Andrew Lippa bring these macabre characters to life!
Director Katy Carignan says, “This show is fun for all ages, bringing the humor of the Addams Family and music that will keep you humming as you leave the theatre.” The cast is made up of Rogers City Community Theatre Alumni and new actors that have just arrived in our Northern Michigan community. With music direction by Karl Heidemann, choreography by Ashley Nowicki, costumes designed by Valerie Schalk, and makeup design by Katy Conklin, the actors will sing and dance as they tell the story of Wednesday Addams’ first love and the crisis that ensues when his family comes for dinner.
This is an opportunity to experience live theatre that will be fun for all ages. This show brings together new members of our theatre community and experienced cast and crew. Wednesday Addams played by local high school student Lexi Haske shines as the mysterious and macabre heroine. Brittany VanderWall plays the dark and sultry Morticia (her mother) who’s just not ready for her daughter to be in love. Gomez Addams (Garrison Benson) playing the dramatic father and husband trapped between the two and Fester Addams (Jodi Kamyszek) just wants to make everything work out for the family (and find a little love of his own!) Joined by Grandma, Pugsley, Lurch and the rest of the Addam’s Ancestors, it will be a night no one will forget. Lucas Beineke is bringing his parents to the Addams home for dinner and they may never be the same. Lucas is played by newcomer to our community Alex Czarnecki and his parents Alice (Ashley Nowicki) and Mal (Karl Heidemann) are not sure what to think of this crazy clan.
