      Everyone's favorite family, THE ADDAMS FAMILY, is on stage at
      Chagrin Valley Little Theatre July 22 - Aug. 20

CHAGRIN FALLS, OH – If you've ever been young and in love, you know how 
stressful it is to introduce your eccentric family to your beloved's 
spotless family. It can only get worse if you are a member of the 
"creepy and kooky, mysterious and spooky" Addams Family. As the lyrics 
to the beloved TV theme song state, "they're altogether ooky."

THE ADDAMS FAMILY musical comedy will be staged by Chagrin Valley Little 
Theatre for 13 performances on weekends July 22 - August 20. 
Performances are 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. on select 
Sundays (July 31, Aug. 7 and Aug. 14).

The plot has Wednesday Addams, that ultimate princess of darkness, all 
grown up and in love with a young man from a respectable, so-called 
normal family. She confides this to her father, Gomez, begging him to 
not tell her mother, Morticia, who would be… well… mortified. But, Gomez 
has never been able to keep a secret from his wife. Everything changes 
when the family hosts a dinner for the boyfriend and his parents.

Directed and choreographed by Pamela LaForce, with musical direction by 
Andy Novak, CVLT's rendition of this 2010 Broadway hit offers lively 
summer fun. The script was written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice 
with music and lyrics by Tony-winning composer Andrew Lippa.

"Fans of the 1960s TV show and 1990s films will love this show," CVLT 
Technical Director Edmond Wolff said. "It has all of the culture-clash 
humor and oddball characters of those shows plus musical numbers 
featuring our talented cast."

The CVLT cast includes Paul Sloop ('Gomez'), Jen Justice ('Morticia'), 
Alex Marzullo-Petsche ('Wednesday'), Don Knepper ('Fester'), Mason 
Kacmar ('Pugsley'), Candace Russell ('Grandma') and Michael Kecic 
('Lurch'), on the Addams side, with Enrique Caraballo ('Lucas'), Nina 
Takacs ('Alice'), and Steve Brofman ('Malcom') on the "normal" side. The 
Addams 'Ancestors' ensemble includes Elyse Mulvaney, Genevieve Vince, 
Emily Stack, Kimberly Sullivan, Leah Michele Davenport, Stephen Bundy 
and Glen Johnson.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $16 for students and seniors. Group 
discounts are available for groups of 10 or more. The play is not 
recommended for young children. Call the Box Office, 440-247-8955 Monday 
– Saturday 1-6 p.m. or contact www.CVLT.org. The theatre is located at 
40 River Street in Chagrin Falls.

CVLT is generously funded by Cuyahoga County residents through Cuyahoga 
Arts and Culture and supported by the Ohio Arts Council. CVLT is a proud 
member of the American Association of Community Theatre and the Ohio 
Community Theatre Association.
