Synopsis:
That lovable family of creepy kooks is alive and well and living in their super-spooky mansion in Central Park. The Addams family, led by the elegantly gaunt and seemingly undead Morticia and her ever-devoted husband Gomez, is in turmoil. Their daughter Wednesday, now a teenager, finds herself falling in love—a sensation that is unsettling for her immediate family of endearing misfits and her haunted ancestors, returned from the grave to musically guide the family through the mayhem. When the teen invites her new boyfriend, Lucas Beineke, over with his “normal” family to get better acquainted with the Addams household, comic chaos ensues and the Addams family must face the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations: change.

 

AUDITION PREPARATION
Character Breakdown
Performers will be asked to sing a short cut from the song, “When You’re An Addams” as their audition song. Below, there is a link to a vocal track and karaoke track to rehearse with. The karaoke version will be what is used for auditions.  There are also links to both the sheet music and the lyrics. Please note: The vocal track of the song contains several harmony lines and echo vocal parts – please try your best to sing the melody line. For boys with changed voices, please sing down the octave.  For a better look at the melody line, please take a look at the sheet music link below.  The melody line is highlighted in yellow.

Come out & Show Your Support for our Holiday Play!

The Stout Theater Company has been hard at work for several months now, gearing up for our show, “The Bullies’ Christmas Carol.”

Today’s show has been canceled due to the snow day, but we are still on for tomorrow, Friday, December 15, 2017! We need your support for us to continue our theater movement at Stout Middle School.

Tonight’s show cancellation means our efforts need to be doubled for our success. An additional show will be scheduled for Tuesday evening, December 19, 2017. 

Our young performers have worked really hard and your attendance will encourage them to continue to make success stories.
