THE ADDAMS FAMILY
Grand Opera House, York
Pick Me Up Theatre brought the Broadway musical version of The Addams Family to York's Grand Opera House for a very special Halloween week run in October 2015.
Audiences fell in love once again with that loveable family of creepy kooks – Gomez, Morticia, Uncle Fester, Grandma, Wednesday, Pugsley, Lurch – and a fantastic ensemble of undead ancestors.
The Addams Family musical is the creation of Jersey Boy authors Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice and composer/lyricist Andrew Lippa.
It's based, of course, on the eccentric family that first appeared in a cartoon by Charles Addams in the New Yorker magazine back in 1938 and developed into the cheerfully creepy clan of the 1960s TV series and then the big screen version of the 90s starring Anjelica Huston, Raul Julia and Christopher Lloyd.
