(MIDDLETOWN, NJ) — The MAC PLAYERS at the Middletown Arts Center will be holding auditions for their production of The Adams Family on Monday, August 8th from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. The creepy, weird, mysterious, creepy, and downright weird family comes to life in this macabre musical with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. The Addams Family, the third production by the MAC’s newly formed adult theater group, will be performed October 21-23, 28-30 and will be directed by Kathy Connolly with musical direction by Nicholas Jupinka.
In the play, Wednesday Addams, the delightfully unusual daughter of Gomez and Morticia, has fallen in love. Everything changes for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner party for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents! A delicious and whimsical night of music, chills and emotions!
