The Addams Family

Following a sell-out season of Seussical in 2023, Nayland College brings you Playbill's most produced school musical of 2023 - The Addams Family - School Edition.

In the kooky, upside-down world of the Addams Family, to be sad is to be happy, to feel pain is to feel joy, and death and suffering are the stuff of their dreams. Nonetheless, this quirky family still has to deal with the same challenges faced by any other family, and the spookiest nightmare faced by every family - the Addams kids are growing up.

The Addamses have lived by their unique values for hundreds of years and parents Gomez and Morticia, would be only too happy to continue living that way.

Their dark, macabre, beloved daughter Wednesday, however, is now an eighteen-year-old young woman who is ready for a life of her own. She has fallen in love with Lucas Beineke, a sweet, smart boy from a normal, respectable family — the most un-Addams sounding person one could be!

And to make matters worse, she invited the Beinekes to their home for dinner. In one fateful, hilarious night, secrets are disclosed, relationships are tested, and the Addams family must face up to the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations: change.

Parental discretion is advised when deciding if the content is age appropriate for their child. The show contains some adult innuendo, mild profanity, and scenes containing comical torture.
