About The Addams Family Young@Part®
THE ADDAMS FAMILY Young@Part® is the authorized 60 minute edition of the Broadway musical for elementary and middle schools, and youth theatres. Through a series of workshops with industry professionals and actual kids, the Young@Part® musicals are tailor-made for younger actors. Song keys are changed where needed, songs and scenes are edited for time and content, while keeping the spirit of the original Broadway show intact. There are great parts for girls, boys and can feature any size ensemble/chorus, who are featured throughout the show.
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 whom her parents have never met. She 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.
Our Process
After two years of waiting, it has been refreshing and invigorating getting our Middle School Students back on stage in Centennial Hall. Starting with auditions in October, and rehearsals soon after, we have been working hard to rebuild our program and reintroduce a safe and inclusive space for our theatre students. Whether our students are on stage or working hard behind the scenes, this space has been missed, and we are so grateful for this fun, family-friendly musical to bring our students back to the stage!
We will be raising funds during our performances to help finance the Form II service work in Puerto Rico. Your generous donations will go to helping us clean up and decorate head start schools in Puerto Rico to assist their teachers in creating a safe and beautiful learning environment for young children.
