Previous Next About the Show Celebrate the wackiness in every family with our best-selling Broadway musical adapted for school-age performers!a Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday 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. Critic’s Corner “”The Addams Family, headed by Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth, is a glitzy-gloomy musical in which the quick and the dead are equally full of character. The whole show is a menage a trois of the ghastly, the ghostly and the side-splitting.” John Simon Bloomberg News “This “deliciously dark and superbly funny” musical comedy embraces the wackiness in every family. The award-winning show is based on some of the characters created by The New Yorker cartoonist Charles Addams in his single-panel drawings, which depict a ghoulish American family with an affinity for all things macabre.” Who’s Who More at Millbrook Accessibility The Main Stage and Cabaret theaters have ramp and stair lift access, and accessible seating areas.

TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE — June 7 – June 15
By Jeffrey Hatcher & Mitch Albom. Based on the book by Mitch Albom.
– “No matter how well you tell the story, the play makes it more vivid, shattering and humorous.”
The autobiographical story of Mitch Albom, an accomplished journalist driven solely by his career, and Morrie Schwartz, his former college professor. Sixteen years after graduation, Mitch happens to catch Morrie’s appearance on a television news program and learns that his old professor is battling Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Mitch is reunited with Morrie, and what starts as a simple visit turns into a weekly.
GODSPELL — July 12 – July 21
Book by John Michael Tebelak. Music and New Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz.
– “From the three-time Grammy, Tony, and Academy Award winning writer Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin)!”
A small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables (based on The Gospel according to St. Matthew) by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and a hefty dose of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus’ life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus’ messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life. A masterful retelling of the original sensation injected with contemporary references and dazzling new arrangements! Rated PG.
