Overview
Celebrate the wackiness in every family with our best-selling Broadway musical adapted for middle school-age performers! Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.
THE ADDAMS FAMILY Young@Part® is the authorized 60-minute edition of the Broadway musical for elementary and middle schools, and youth theatres. The Young@Part® musicals are carefully crafted through a series of workshops with industry professionals and young performers. Song keys are adjusted where necessary, and songs and scenes are edited for time and content, all while preserving the essence of the original Broadway production.
Each Young@Part® title includes Performance Tracks, Guide Vocal Tracks, a Director’s Guide, 30 Student Scripts, and more, all available with an affordable Performance License package.
