My husband and i were very much looking forward to this event and we were completely disappointed. If you are a fan of the Addams Family cartoon, tv show or movie, this will be a major letdown. The plotline was lifted from the Birdcage and the whole show had none of the kookiness of the original characters. The costumes were good.
From beginning to end my daughter and I enjoyed the show thoroughly. The only thing a tad bit negative was the fact that the intermission was only 15 minutes. I think a total of 25 minutes would have been great.
It was funny, exciting and overall well done. The props were beautiful, the acting and singing was fantastic. We really enjoyed the show, as did everyone else. Standing Ovation!
It was everything I had hoped it would be. Extremely funny, awesome music. I couldn't have asked for more. I'm tracking them for when they come near me again!!!! Loved it!!!
Terrific!! I enjoyed it as much as plays I have seen on Broadway.
I loved the show. It was very funny. We stayed after and got to meet the cast. They were all very nice. They stayed and signed every persons playbill that stayed. Overall experience awesome!
Comedy was on point, Uncle Fester's quips had me rolling the whole time. The music isn't nearly as catchy as many other shows, but this is a great joining of years of different Addams Family jokes.
Fantastic show! One of my favorites. A must see. The cast was terrific, the storyline hilarious.
The play was wonderful. Uncle Fester was great. The only thing that I missed was the lurch did not say "You rang" like I was expecting.
Great story Great music Great acting loved it!!!!!!!
Simply Wonderful!! Maybe one of the best plays I have ever seen.
We saw this show on broadway with the original cast and it was amazing but with the story line and music changes the new Orleans show was even better.
So-so enthusiasm by the players. Only one song I would consider somewhat outstanding.
The Addams Family cast are very talented and the play was very well done. My husband, myself and my 14 year old granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The dancing was excellent, unique scenery, great dialogue, funny stuff. Excellent family entertainment. Good luck Adams Family on your tour. Wishing all of you every success.
An enjoyable light evening-fun music, clever lines-
Thoroughly entertaining with several moments of hilarity. The talented actors and actresses of the Addams Family were adeptly cast.
Production values and stage effects were amazing. Top-notch. Story is changed from what appeared on Broadway and some new songs are included. The actors playing Gomez and Morticia do a nice job, but would have loved to see Nathan Lane and Bebe in the new material. Best parts of the musical are when they use old school stage techniques like stagehands clad in black to make scenes come to life. That's the strong point of the musical.
I thought it was very well done, well performed, good scenery, loved the dancing tassle. The actors were superb, the songs were good. I was impressed with the whole thing.
Having grown up watching the TV show I didn't know what to expect but my husband and I were both pleasantly surprised. Casting was right on, songs were catchy and enjoyable, the sets were perfect and the dialog was funny. One recommendation-----more Thing!!! During the song "Full Disclosure" when the cast were waving their hands it would have been so perfect - and seemingly easy to do - to have Thing waving as well. Also where was Lurch's famous "You rang?" I would definitely recommend this musical comedy to anyone
I go frequently to New York, but had not seen the "Addams Family" there because of the mixed reviews. However, I decided to see the touring production because it was in my "backyard" and the prices were not "New York" prices. I took my 85 year old father with me. First of all, the production values for a touring company are outstanding - great sets, costumes, lighting and a great group of musicians. And the actors were top-notch; they all seemed to be having a great time onstage. The audience was quite responsive - everyone around me was laughing and clapping thoughout the show, and I think the cast responded to the audience's energy. I had seen Douglas Sills in "The Scarlet Pimpernel" in New York and thought he had done a great job then. But in the role of Gomez, he really had opportunity to shine. He was plain terrific. Sara Gettelfinger as Morticia was also good, but could have had a bit more sultry and mysterious. The other actors playing Fester, Wednesday, Puglsey, Lurch, Grandma and the fiance and in-laws were all pros, Fester, Wednesday, Pugsley and the mother-in-law had particularly effective singing styles. The only complaint was that Act Two was not as solid as Act One. The plot was a bit thin, but overall, it was still fun and never boring. Fester's love song to the moon was charming. I would recommend anyone to see this touring show if you are looking for a good, solid night of fun at the theatre.
