THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and every father’s nightmare: 

Wednesday Addams (Norah Armstrong) has fallen in love with Lucas (Easton Blecke), a young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. Feeling pulled in two directions, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. 

Now, Gomez Addams (Kaden Hopkins) must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia (Brooklyn Bierbower). Everything will change for Grandma (Laura Hasemann), Pugsley (Madalyn Franta), Lurch (Ethan Wibben) as they host a dinner for Wednesday’s boyfriend and his parents Mal (Orion Spieker) and Alice (Riley Haschke).  Can Uncle Fester (Carter Hasemann) and a team of Addams ancestors save the day?
