The Addams Family Musical, school edition, will be hitting the secondary school’s stage April 23 to 27 at 7 p.m. each evening and a special Saturday matinee at 1 p.m.
There’s 62 students involved, 15 teacher-volunteers, and with a little help from the community the sets have just gone through finishing touches. Teachers have rallied to help with box office, costumes, sets, props and everything else that needs doing.The whole community has come together to help.The Addams Family Musical, music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, has been one of those shows that’s been in the back of Friesen’s mind for a long time, she added.
“Just looking at the pool of talent we have we knew this was the show for these students,” Friesen said. “I think at the heart of it the Addams Family is a kookie family and it just works because they all bring something to the table. And that’s exactly what our theatre company is, we’re all weird, wonderful people who all have these weird, wonderful quirks and together it just works. It’s just really symbolic of us as a group coming together.
This is the second time the group has created something wonderful, Friesen added. Last year’s production was Game of Tiaras, a spoof of Games of Thrones with a twist.The Addams Family Musical runs from April 23 to 27. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., show starts at 7 p.m. at the Duchess Park Theatre. Tickets are $20 for adults, $10 for students. Special half price matinee Saturday, April 27. Doors open at 12:30 p.m., show starts at 1 p.m.
