10 roles
The patriarch of the Addams Family – a loving father, a passionate husband, and (possibly) a homicidal maniac. (Vocal Range: Bb2-G4)
The mother of the brood and object of Gomez’s adoration. She is a strong matriarch and a beautiful, but potentially dangerous, presence. Strong dance skills a plus. (Vocal Range: G3-Bb5)
Gomez’s oddly sexless brother. He is in love with the moon (literally). The narrator of the show. Willing to shave head a plus. (Vocal Range: C3-G4)
The Addams grandmother (unsure what side). Tiny, yet fierce, matriarchal figure, whose witchlike presence creates dire consequences for the families. (Vocal Range: G4-F5)
The main focus of the love story within the production. She is battling her natural dark nature with the discovery of the brightness of being in love. (Vocal Range: A3-E5)
The Addams incredibly tall, possibly undead, mostly silent butler. Has very few lines beyond grunts and growls, but does have one solo in the finale. (Vocal Range: Eb2-E4)
Wednesday’s love interest. A good-looking, wealthy, seemingly normal young man who is inexplicably attracted to the dark beauty that is Wednesday. (Vocal Range: C3-C5)
Lucas’ stuck-up businessman father. Must be able to bring the humor to this humorless banker-type and show the marital love buried deep within his complacency. (Vocal Range: C3-A4)
Lucas’ frustrated, yet loving mother. She longs to break the bonds of marital boredom and find passion once more. (Vocal Range: Ab3-G#5)
The ensemble for the show. Must have strong vocal and dance skills.
