A hit comedy musical riff on The Addams Family is coming to Birmingham this summer.

Following two wildly successful UK tours and sold-out concerts at The London Palladium, The Addams Family heads to Birmingham Hippodrome from Thu 10 Jul – Sat 12 Jul.

The spectacular musical comedy comes from Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice (writers of the multi-award-winning hit musical Jersey Boys), with music and lyrics by Tony Award-nominated Andrew Lippa, based on the characters created by Charles Addams.

Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, is all grown up and has a shocking secret that only Gomez knows. She’s fallen in love with a sweet, young man from a respectable family. With his cherished Morticia in the dark, will Gomez manage to keep his daughter’s secret until the two families meet for a fateful dinner with hilarious consequences?

The show stars Alexandra Burke (The X Factor, Sister Act, The Bodyguard) as Morticia, Lesley Joseph (Birds of a Feather, Young Frankenstein, Sister Act) as Grandma,  Clive Rowe (The Prince of Egypt, Sister Act, A Christmas Carol) as Uncle Fester and Ricardo Afonso (Jesus Christ Superstar, Thriller Live, We Will Rock You) as Gomez.

Featuring a live orchestra and extraordinary original score, tickets to The Addams Family at Birmingham Hippodrome are on sale now. Grab yours using the button below.
