The ghoulishly delightful production is set to begin its tour on July 7, 2025, bringing the eccentric family's antics to audiences across the UK.
The latest additions to this star-studded company include Jak Allen-Anderson as ensemble and cover Lurch, Abigail Brodie as ensemble and cover Morticia, and JR Ballantyne as ensemble and cover Gomez. Also joining are Eamonn Cox (ensemble, cover Mal and Fester), Siobhan Diffin (cover Alice, Grandma / Swing), Maria Garrett (ensemble and cover Wednesday), Chloe Gentles (ensemble and cover Pugsley), and Sario Solomon (ensemble and cover Lucas). This talented ensemble will ensure every creepy, kooky, mysterious, and spooky moment is perfectly delivered.
They join the previously announced leads: Alexandra Burke (The X Factor, Sister Act) as the captivating Morticia Addams, Lesley Joseph (Birds of a Feather) as the kooky Grandma, Clive Rowe (Sister Act) as the lovable Uncle Fester, and Ricardo Afonso (Jesus Christ Superstar) as the dashing Gomez Addams. Rounding out the main family are Lauren Jones as Wednesday Addams, Nicholas McLean as Pugsley Addams, and Dickon Gough returning to his role as Lurch from the original UK cast. Dale Rapley, Jacob Fowler, and Kara Lane complete the principal cast as Mal, Lucas, and Alice respectively.
Based on Charles Addams’ beloved characters, with a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice (Jersey Boys), and music and lyrics by Tony Award-nominated Andrew Lippa, THE ADDAMS FAMILY promises a hilarious and heartwarming tale. When grown-up Wednesday Addams falls for a "normal" young man, Gomez must keep her shocking secret from his dearest Morticia, leading to a fateful dinner that's sure to be full of comical chaos.
Directed by Matthew White, with choreography by Alistair David and production design by Diego Pitarch, this tour is set to be a visual and musical treat.
