Absolutely wonderful . I couldn't have enjoyed it more. Thank you so much to the cast for giving us such a joyful experience!! I was singing all the way home.....

BETTER THAN ORIGINAL CAST

What a great show! Catchy music, great acting and amazing sets. The actors were even better than the original cast in my opinion. I wish it were playing longer so I could see it again.

OUT OF THIS WORLD!

The Addams Family was AMAZING!!! This was, by far, the best show I've ever seen! It blows all others out of the water! The caliber of actors was unbelievable and they did an outstanding job! I would watch it all five days it ran, if I could! I highly recommend this hillarious and beautifully done production!

4.5 star rating Bob from Memphis

SEE THE SHOW SOONER THAN LATER

If you want to see the show that is being advertised here you need to drive to Madison this week or St. Paul the next. The show that you will see in Appleton will be a completely different tour with a significantly reduced budget for scenery and talent.

LOVED IT!

I had some doubts going into the theater - I mean really, how could they adapt the weird Addams Family to a musical? But without even trying to overtly mimic the tv show, or squeeze in all of the quirky bits (no Thing? no exploding train set?!) they did an amazing job. The sets weren't that great, but it didn't matter - the show was genuinely funny, and everyone was laughing from start to finish. The actor who played Gomez was terrific, and quick to play off the audience, and Uncle Fester was a surprising highlight in an odd scene (perfect!) reminiscent of the silent film era. The standing ovation was well deserved at the end.

BETTER THAN EXPECTED!

Kooky fun - catchy songs - one exceptional costume !

4.0 star rating Carlie Jones from Salt Lake City, Utah

THE ADDAMS FAMILY

There is great talent in this touring company! Gomez and Uncle Fester were stand outs for me. There were a few minor changes from New York, but it did not hurt the show at all. If you are a fan of the old show you will love it, if you are new to it, give it a try. You won't be disappointed. It will knock you dead!!

A BIT DISAPPOINTED`

Disappointment that I felt there was too much "away" from the actual Adams Family TV series. Also, language for "family" and the references to currents events like "Obama Care". Felt it was not classified as "family".

3.5 star rating Robert Wills from Toronto

GREAT!

I was one of those who liked this show on Bdwy. The touring version of the show has been revised to great effect. I loved the cast. Act 1 was OK, but Act 2 was wonderful all the way through. Disregard anybody who gives any show 1* or 5*****. As with most shows, this one lies somewhere in the middle, and definitely good value for the money.

NOT IMPRESSED

I have attended upwards of 30 Broadway shows and was eagerly awaiting the arrival of The Addams Family to St. Paul. I am saddened to say I was very dissappointed. The sets are great but the attempt at humor failed. The only thing it had to offer (if you were male that is)is the slight chance that you would see a wardrobe malfunction and a breast would pop out. I do have to say it improved slightly after intermission but it just felt 'off" the whole play. Someone behind me stated "this is the best show I have ever seen" and I was thinking to myself, you must not go to any Broadway productions then. Maybe they have only been to the Chanhassen and don't have anything to compare it to.
