Watching Addams Family onstage
“There are two things I would never do—say no to my wife, say no to my daughter. So, what exactly should I do do…”
The Addams Family was created in 1938 by cartoonist Charles Addams, who starred the ghoulish family in a series of single-panel cartoons, many of which were published in The New Yorker over a 50-year period. The family has since appeared in lots of other media, including a TV show, films, video games, and more.
