This Friday and Saturday, April 24th and 25th and May 1st and 2nd, Avondale High School will present “The Addams Family,” a musical based on characters out of the brilliant and bizarre mind of Charles Addams.
Charles Addams was a cartoonist who drew for the New Yorker magazine from 1933 to 1988, when he passed away. He left the legacy of a ghoulish family consisting of Morticia, Gomez, Fester, Wednesday, Pugsley, Grandmama, Lurch and Thing. In 1964 through 1966, ABC ran a nighttime sitcom based on the cartoons and the characters became household names. In 1991, a film was produced with the same wacky and weird family. And now the musical.
The show will be held on the above dates at 7:35 p.m. at Avondale High School’s auditorium. The school is located in Auburn Hills at 2800 Waukegan. Prices are $5.00 and $10.00. All seats are reserved and tickets can be purchased at the school during school hours or by contacting www.avondaledrama.com
So tune up the harpsichord because “it’s time to pay a call on The Addams Family” (Snap, snap.)
