Queensbury High School is about to get a little creepier, kookier, and altogether ookier as Queensbury High School presents “The Addams Family” musical at 7 p.m. March 13 and 14 and at 2 p.m. March 15 at the high school auditorium.
“The Addams Family,” a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and a dilemma that’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.
“Bringing ‘The Addams Family’ to Queensbury High School this year has been an absolute joy,” said show director Andrew Terry. “Our cast and crew have fully embraced the show’s quirky humor and heart, and I’m continually blown away by how they celebrate creativity, collaboration, and the uniqueness of every student involved. It’s a reminder that theater not only entertains — it brings an entire community together.”
Tickets for “The Addams Family” will cost $15 and will go on sale at 10 a.m. Feb. 15 at CUR8.com.
