Description

Greasepaint Theatre presents the musical comedy, THE ADDAMS FAMILY, music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa with book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. The show runs October 21 – 30, 2022 at Stagebrush Theatre, 7020 E. 2nd St. in Scottsdale.

The show is based on the morbidly witty Addams family cartoon created by Charles Addams. Family patriarch Gomez Addams and his beloved wife Morticia guide their clan through the perils of living singularly in a world of uninteresting “normal” people.  The musical successfully captures the essence of the original cartoon — love and beauty are seamless, and stronger than anything opposing it. The original musical opened on Broadway in April 2010, starring Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth, with a successful run of 722 shows followed by a national tour. The show garnered many of Broadway’s accolades including the Drama League Award for Distinguished Achievement in Musical Theatre, for Nathan Lane.
