About

Lurching back into Chicago for a return engagement, THE ADDAMS FAMILY is a smash-hit musical comedy that brings the darkly delirious world of Gomez, Morticia, Uncle Fester, Grandma, Wednesday, Pugsley and, of course, Lurch to spooky and spectacular life. This magnificently macabre new musical comedy is created by Jersey Boys authors Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice, Drama Desk-winning composer/lyricist Andrew Lippa (The Wild Party), choreographer Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys) and Olivier Award-winning director/designers Phelim McDermott & Julian Crouch (Shockheaded Peter) with creative consultation by four-time Tony Award® winner Jerry Zaks. Come meet the family. We'll leave the lights off for you.

    Tour vs. Broadway

    by jbtheatregirl on 1/3/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    While I enjoyed the show, I was disappointed in some of the decisions of the creators to adjust the show from the Broadway version. I was expecting to hear certain songs and see a giant squid, when suddenly they weren't there. I have never seen this show. I have read much about it and have listened to the boardway soundtrack for a year now. The orchestra was fabulous, and I really liked the use of the drapes as a staging tool.

    Thought that the show was very entertaining. The sets, costumes and plot of the play was true to the Addams Family fand and also entertaining for anyone who wasn't familiar with the television series or movies.

    by BLKPHNX on 1/3/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Great show. Acting and music were outstanding. Particularly the actor who portrayed Gomez. Show was more than the family hoped for.

    by StuartLittle on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    My husband and I absolutely loved the musical, THE ADDAMS FAMILY. It not only exceeded our expectations but delivered an awesome performance every single minute of the show. It never lacked for heartfelt comedy and impeccable timing. A truly awesome night of entertainment! Well worth the price of the ticket. The standing "O" was proof of that!

    Great show!!

    by Lakenorman on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    I really enjoyed the show, the cast is one of the most talented I've saw in Chicago theater. Went New Years Eve so the audience may have been more "festive" don't forget to snap your fingers!!!

    by Sharoline on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    This musical was funny, entertaining, and had a wonderful up-to-date story line. The actors were excellent. I laughed, I snapped with the music, and I truly enjoyed every moment. If you enjoyed The Addams Family television series, then this is a must-see!

    The Adams Family was so Funny!! Loved it!!

    by Manda198200 on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    It was a great comedy for both adults and kids. The Singing and dancing was awesome and so fun. The special effects were Amazing. This show was 5 stars and you dont want to miss out by not seeing it. If you have a sense of humor and love the Adams Family tv show then get your tickets now. So worth the money. Such a great show!!

    Addams Family

    by MeMusicalMe on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Oooh, this was the worst show I've seen in a LONG time. I had hoped that they would have fixed this show since the last time it was in Chicago, but they didn't. Really not worth the $$. Though the performers themselves were first rate, the material was just heinous!

    Adams Family Twist

    by Anonymous on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    This was a good play. There were elements of the original that we're not portrayed in the play. The play seems to portray the characters (kids) as older than they were in the tv show. Did not know that was the premis for the show. Still very entertaining and kept my attention. Would recommend it for all ages

    Great fun. It was a little more love themed than I would've expected from the Addams but really great!

    Great and Spectacular show

    by KellyKujan on 1/2/12Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    This was a great show and I am glad I had the chance to see it. It was a great and spectacular show. They did a great job with the storyline and the songs. A must see show especially if you grew up with the Adams family like I did.
