The Addams Family

Till Sunday 10 August

Following two smash-hit UK tours and sold-out shows at the iconic London Palladium, The Addams Family returns this summer with a dazzling new production—and it’s every bit as weird and wonderful as you’d hope!

Starring Alexandra Burke as the glamorous Morticia, Lesley Joseph as the mischievous Grandma, Clive Rowe as the loveable Uncle Fester, and Ricardo Afonso as the suave Gomez, this spectacular musical comedy brings Charles Addams’ beloved characters back to the stage in ghoulishly good form.

With a witty book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice (Jersey Boys) and music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa, this production delivers a devilishly funny story about love, loyalty, and letting your freak flag fly. Wednesday Addams is all grown up and in love—with a perfectly normal boy from a perfectly normal family. As the two families prepare for an unforgettable dinner, secrets unravel, chaos erupts, and hilarity ensues.

Expect an extraordinary original score, a full live orchestra, and unforgettable performances that are guaranteed to entertain audiences aged 8 to 308.

Running time: 2 hours 30 minutes (including a 20-minute interval)
Age guidance: 8+
Warnings: Theatrical haze, flashing lights, pyrotechnics, loud noises, depictions of smoking, and moderate language.

Please note:

  • Lesley Joseph will not appear 19–22 July (Grandma will be played by Siobhan Diffin)

  • Alexandra Burke will not appear 2 August (Morticia will be played by Abigail Brodie)

A deliciously dark delight for the whole family—don’t miss the kookiest night out of the summer!
