When we did it last fall, our ancestors were resurrected zombies. Their makeup was super detailed and the costume designer based it around how she thought each one died based on their profession or theme, so there was like a gunshot and a lynching and a car accident and i can't remember which else but it was awesome to have a little bit different interpretation.
Patrice Nelms did they come from different time periods? I feel like that's important to keep. Every Adams past present and future [although that only happened one time, and I think he made a wrong turn]
Patrice Nelms In my schools production I’m an ancestor and I’m a 1920s deputon girl who shot herself in a game of Russian roulette lmao my backstory is great
lmao in mine literally everyone was just wearing any historical white costume they could along with white makeup that was only personalized for a specific 10 ancestors idek what i was bro but it actually looked okay (it was march 23rd 24th and 25th btw)
Patrice Nelms We have ours that way too. We have a zombified cowgirl, a Navy seal, an airplane hostess, a big homeless bearded guy, a biker dude, an Indian and a pilgrim, and a bunch of others. Their accidents are kinda left up to interpretation. It’s pretty interesting I’m in the pit orchestra.
I saw The Addams Family with a friend, who coordinated the tickets. Turned out we saw it just a couple days after Nathan Lane left the show. I was so disappointed!
i absolutely love krysta rodriguez as wednesday. she is amazing and never gets out of character. and she makes the choreography so stylized to match wednesday and her character it is amazing. and when it is only her dancing with the ancestors she kills it. her vocals, facial expressions, and even dancing ability is amazing and very entertaining to watch.
She does in the beginning of the show but she loses them because shes now a "woman"...the whole play is based off a dinner her family hosts for her new boyfriend
Oh. What kind of shows does your school do? My theater is doing this show next semester along with Shrek but I might not audition for it because I might try out for little women
We are doing this for our winter musical production this year. I was sad to see that I didn't get a lead, I got Flapper, an ancestor. But, I love my part, haven't got a costume yet, but I'm sure it'll be awesome. Awesome job to the cast of Addams Family! :)
My high school is doing this show and I really want to be in this number. I've worked with the directors before and knowing them they'll cast me as one of the featured dancers if I don't get a speaking roll, and I'm 99% sure that the dancers will be the ancestors in this number so I'm excited
Hey thanks I'm glad I'm not the only one who think that.And man it's so cool to watch it that way I can't watch this video any other way than full screen!I'm glad you enjoyed it in full screen!
At play practice (we’re doing the middle school version) in our script it says, “I love it when you talk sweet!” And Our Gomez said, “I love it when you talk sexy” and then we all started laughing 😂
i'm leaving in two weeks to go to nyc with my dance class for a competion/convention/ sight seeing and broadway show seeing and we are seing this show the first night!!!!!!! i'm sooooooooooooo pumped
Im very excited for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on October 30th I will have to call Aunty Brenda and tell her Happy Birthday and tell her all about it
Trying to learn the dance break in this but so far no success. My school is doing this show in the spring. good thing i have 5 months to practice this before auditions! Any tips for learning this dance or any broadway dance in general?
When I learning something from video like this, I always watch very intently and pause every few seconds and do the steps until I am no longer confused. Even if it means I pause every 2 seconds! And you have to make sure you're doing it in the opposite direction they are, because if you're on stage and mirror them, you'd be doing it opposite from everyone else. But by then, you'll have practiced with them to know which direction to go lol this dance is a little more complex and there's a lot of moving around, so it might be a tad more difficult. The most recent I've learned is "Candy Store" from Heathers and I currently teaching others that, too. Practice makes it better! So just watch carefully, practice until there is no confusion, and keep practicing so you improve and remember! Good luck!!
puregeniusgirl101 when you watch it on a computer u can slow down certain parts to see the dance moves. Just watch it over and over and do it piece by piece
Aww, come on! Wednesday is awesome. She's arguably the most popular. Sure videogames have highlighted her parents (TAF & TAFV games), brother (Scavenger Hunt game), and uncle (Fester's Quest), but in the end, when asked among the fandom who is the favorite, most say Wednesday.
I love how the girl who plays Mortitia is able to keep the exact same expression throught the whole song. That takes skill. (Probably not, I might just suck at stuff like that)
2:00-- O_O That was SO unexpected!! BUWAHAHA! xD I was expecting like a deep, sinister sound but it was like a duck laughing!! AWESOME!!!! And every time she shimmies, I get worried. O.o Awesome, though. And Wednesday is EPIC. I NEED to see this show!!
When you realize that Bertram from Jessie is Uncle Fester lol
OMG you're right !! O_o And now he is the Wizard in Wicked !
Soooo trye
True... lol
He was also Horton in Seussical!!
He was also Horton in the Broadway production of Seussical
When Bebe/Morticia strikes the "arms crossed" pose at 4:06 it's such a perfect imitation of Carolyn Jones.. almost as if Carolyn was back with us
I like her

Fun fact: Gomez's actor is the voice of Timon from The Lion King.
Flameheart from Thunderclan Dude he's a Broadway legend being the voice of timon doesn't even scratch the surface
Flameheart from Thunderclan Now I can't stop hearing it!
Favourite roles of his for me is The Producers and The Birdcage
I just reccognised him from Modern Family
He was also co-lead role in Mousehunt
As much as I adored the UK cast nothing will beat Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth
I saw The Addams Family with a friend, who coordinated the tickets. Turned out we saw it just a couple days after Nathan Lane left the show. I was so disappointed!
Bebe Neuwirth as also amazing as Velma in Chicago 😁
i absolutely love krysta rodriguez as wednesday. she is amazing and never gets out of character. and she makes the choreography so stylized to match wednesday and her character it is amazing. and when it is only her dancing with the ancestors she kills it. her vocals, facial expressions, and even dancing ability is amazing and very entertaining to watch.
in my choir class, were singing this and the Addams family theme song, nightmare before Christmas and monster mash
Digital Gamer same here!! My choir did a mashup of this, one normal night, join the family business, and other songs!
Sounds like a pretty good deal
i just got cast as Morticia!!!!!
winnie CONGRATS
winnie same for my dance show!!!!!!! Congrats!
What did you audition with?
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Yay!
This couldn't have had a better cast!
Finally, a video of this song I can keep watching without the singing being drowned out by the audience
Yikes! No one was singing when I saw it on Broadway.
My only problem with this is Wednesday's lack of braids
It's because Wednesday is older now in her late teens/early 20s ❤️
CHRISTINA RICCI FOREVER....👍👍👍. SHE'S THE BEST WEDNESDAY EVER.
Wednsday is 18 in this version
She does in the beginning of the show but she loses them because shes now a "woman"...the whole play is based off a dinner her family hosts for her new boyfriend
Abram in Wonderland EXACTLY
I'm so excited for Carrie hope fletcher getting the role of Wednesday for the UK 2017 tour!! Congrats Carrie!! You are gonna do amazing!💕💕
Ah yes I'm going to see it and I cannot be more excited to see Carrie!
Cosset Daae she was so good!!
Natasha when are you going?
Olivia Kelly July in Bradford (:
She is amazing!, watched it today in Northampton, absolutely fantastic.
OMG that is burtrum from Jessie
+Bella Day Indeed it is. I remember saying, "Is that Uncle Fester?" when I saw him on that show.
OH MY GOD!!!
This musical is just bomb!
I wish our school would do something like this, like these classic beloved musicals.
Oh. What kind of shows does your school do? My theater is doing this show next semester along with Shrek but I might not audition for it because I might try out for little women
Cannot wait to audition for this show on saturday!!! Going for Morticia!
😋good luck
+BellatrixRox16 I'm playing Lurch.
That's cool! I'm one of the Ancestors
+BellatrixRox16 It's definitely my favorite musical that I've done at my school. I was Uncle Fester. His voice is so fun to do. XD
Jordan Shoulders I am currently playing one of the Ancestors for the BAM production in my town! It's so much fun!
Personally, this is the best cast as this actor for Gomez is much better than any other Gomez.
Oh, I love Nathan Lane.
+Abby Gray His and my birthday are the same day
TBNRcommunist Cameron Blakely in the British version is absolutely fantastic.
Aw I'm about to play him
Maddy Gowers 100% agree!
God, this was such a fantastic musical. Tons of fun. I recommend it highly to anyone who hasn't gone.
Most people in the comments: I want to be Morticia! I want to be Gomez!
Me: I'M LURCH!!!!
Hell yeah buddy lurches unite those fuckers cant sing as low as us
Me to
I’m Wednesday!
My best friend got Lurch, I’ve never seen someone better at playing a corpse 😆
I'm lurch too for my school
I love how he says “Come to me” and he’s the one that walks up to her.
This is my favorite cast for this musical.
We are doing this for our winter musical production this year. I was sad to see that I didn't get a lead, I got Flapper, an ancestor. But, I love my part, haven't got a costume yet, but I'm sure it'll be awesome.

We are doing it this year. I’m a Victorian ancestor :)
Wednesday....all day
lol
Yo what is her name?
She’s gorgeous
all week
@@kaynuchiha3854 I know I’m replying late but Krysta Rodriguez
my highschool recently did this musical and it was so good, i wish i could rewatch it over and over again😭
I played an ancestor for my school's adaptation. I had a blast.
@Bridgettefan231
the "girl" who plays Morticia is Bebe Neuwirth - one of America's Broadway Legends! ;-)
Song is stuck in my head and I love it! When you're an Addams *snap snap*
auditioning for this Tomorrow! hoping for Wednesday!!!
Did you get it?
Emily Moran did you get Wendsday
did you get it?
2 years later and I really want to know if you got wednesday
did 👏 u 👏 get 👏 it 👏
Carrie Hope fletcher and the cast of the U.K Addams Family seem like they'll make he show the best out there!
間奏で曲調が色々と変わっても、ダンサーが不気味要素を崩さないのがすごい！わずかな首の傾きや体幹の固定など、演出か振り付けかダンサーお一人お一人の力量かわかりませんが、とても感動しました！
I'm Pocahontas Addams in the production :) So excited!!
Then explain to us what a blue corn moon is
PyroPancakes I’m sorry this is really old but BAHAHAHAHAHA
I’m in Adam’s family rn playing Pugsley and I love seeing this it’s so good
the comedic timing here is on point!
My son's in the pit for this show in Berkeley. Soooo proud! ...when you're an Adams!👏👏
No because this cast is loaded with so many talented people of my childhood-
All i can say is this show is to die for, get it, to die for.
everyone should try putting the captions on on this video. Truly priceless transcribing right here.
I commend the actors for supressing there urge to smile to stay in character they must be having a awsome time XD
I really enjoyed this opening when I saw it live. Nathan and Bebe were perfect for the roles. I loved this play now =3
childhood memories.....loved that show
I remember singing and acting this out for a play, good times.
What a great cast!
My high school is doing this musical this year. Playing clarinet 1 in the pit. Score is amazing 💛
I love how Wednesday stays in character even when the song is over:)
My school's doing this for our musical this year and I'm stoked! I'm the hippie ancestor. (:
I just saw this tonight on the tour, though everyone looked a lot younger. Loved this first part and couldn't get it out of my head.
"Rigor mortis" is such a great laugh line, but they allowed almost no time!
My high school is doing this show and I really want to be in this number. I've worked with the directors before and knowing them they'll cast me as one of the featured dancers if I don't get a speaking roll, and I'm 99% sure that the dancers will be the ancestors in this number so I'm excited
At 4:00 I just find it so satisfying to hear Gomez actor to sing "by and by".
that song. it makes you wanna be.....jus like them.
Hey thanks I'm glad I'm not the only one who think that.And man it's so cool to watch it that way I can't watch this video any other way than full screen!I'm glad you enjoyed it in full screen!
God I love that tall male dancer. He’s so acrobatic
Dude this video looks better far better in full screen it really does trust me it does!
Incredibly good! 💗
At play practice (we’re doing the middle school version) in our script it says, “I love it when you talk sweet!” And Our Gomez said, “I love it when you talk sexy” and then we all started laughing 😂
one of my favorite parts of this, is Lurch smiling after it's all over :)
Watched the show last night - it was fantastic!
