About the Show
The Addams Family Musical is a reimagining of the beloved spooky family, with vibes from the Netflix series Wednesday. Wednesday Addams has grown up and fallen in love with a "normal" boy, and asks her deliciously macabre family to be on their best behaviour for one unpredictable night. It's a hilarious, heartfelt celebration of love, misfits, and the beauty of being exactly who you are.
Featuring an all-youth cast of local Thames talent aged 8–18, this is a not-to-be-missed night of comedy, music, and heart for the whole family.
Performances at the Civic: 26 September – 3 October 2026.
