The Adams Family Jr & Irving Berlin’s Holiday Inn
About the Show & Characters
Book by: Marshall Brickman & Rick Elice
Music & Lyrics by: Andrew Lippa
THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and a dilemma that’s every father’s nightmare: 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.
Content/Intimacy Notice
The Addams Family Jr features the family's signature "dark" humor, including references to death, grief, sorrow, torture, and weapons which are treated comically.
Consent-forward intimacy staging will be part of any rehearsal involving physical touch. If you have concerns you would like to discuss, contact Cole at [email protected]. Concerns or limitations with any of the above material will not affect your consideration for the roles.
Characters
GOMEZ ADDAMS (Male) Vocal Range: Baritone - The father of the Addams family. Gomez takes great pride in his family and revels in all it means to be an "Addams." Smart and comedic. Husband to Morticia. A crafty schemer, but also a jolly man in his own way.
MORTICIA ADDAMS (Female) Vocal Range: Mezzo-Soprano - Morticia is the real 'head' of the Addams family, the matriarch. Elegant and gorgeous, Morticia sees only the good in everyone, and comes off as wiser for doing so.
UNCLE FESTER (Male) Vocal: Tenor - The narrator of the show, Uncle Fester serves as the musical's narrator. He is larger than life, an energetic, joyous, child-like presence. A vaudeville style comedian.
GRANDMAMA (Female) Vocal: Soprano - Grandmama Addams is a kooky elder, a feisty 102-year-old woman. Fun and quirky, but don’t mess with Grandma. This disrespectful old lady is the mother of Gomez. Grandma acts as the wise, if sometimes wacky, sage of the family.
WEDNESDAY ADDAMS (Female) Vocal Range: Mezzo-Soprano - The goth daughter of Gomez and Morticia. Wednesday is a charming girl who has the same dry wit and sensibility of her mother, in an even more minor key.
PUGSLEY ADDAMS (Male) Vocal: Tenor - Wednesday’s little brother, Pugsley is a danger-seeking, charming, funny, boy - who loves being tortured by his sister. An energetic monster of a boy... and a dedicated troublemaker.
LURCH (Male) Vocal: Bass - Lurch is the Addams family butler, he knows all the family secrets. A man of very few words, Lurch mostly responds in drawn out groans. His movement is always very slow.
LUCAS BEINEKE (Male) Vocal: Tenor - A hopeful romantic and the son of Mal and Alice Beineke, Lucas is the 'average' young man who has fallen in love with Wednesday Addams and plans to marry her.
MAL BEINEKE (Male) Vocal: Tenor - Mal is Lucas’ stuffy father and an exasperated husband to his rhyming wife, Alice. A typical conservative suburban father that’s cynical of life and especially the Addams family.
ALICE BEINEKE (Female) Vocal: Soprano - Mother of Lucas, devoted to her family so she puts aside her own desires. A typical suburban mom with typical suburban mom problems.
THE ADDAMS ANCESTORS - As descendants of the Addams lineage from various eras and locales, the Addams ancestors act as a backup chorus for multiple scenes and numbers.

Jim's luck takes a spectacular turn when he meets Linda, a spirited schoolteacher with talent to spare.
