MDS Youth Company: The Addams Family Musical

Merrow Dramatic Society Youth Company are proud to present our summer production "The Addams Family Musical"! 

Hundreds of years ago, the Addams family ancestors came from the old country and settled on a plot of land in what is now New York’s Central Park. The family flourished for many generations, and eventually, a huge house was built where a great Spanish oak, the Addams Family Tree, had been planted to protect the ancestral graves from such annoyances as sunlight and tourists. Gomez, Morticia, Fester, Grandma, Wednesday, Pugsley and Lurch gather – where else? – in the family graveyard, to celebrate life and death in a yearly ritual to connect with their past and ensure their future. Those unchanging Addams family values are about to be tested. Fester enlists their help to set things right, just in case a new family secret goes terribly wrong. What’s the secret? Wednesday Addams, that irresistible bundle of malice, has grown up and found love. So what’s the problem? The young man, Lucas Beineke, is from Ohio, and his parents are coming to dinner to meet the family. Two different worlds are about to collide. Will love triumph?
