| has gloss | eng: The Addams Family is an upcoming musical with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and a book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. The show is based upon the characters created by cartoonist Charles Addams in his comic strip The Addams Family, which depicts a ghoulish American family with an affinity for all things macabre. While numerous film and television adaptations of Addams' cartoons exist, the stage show does not draw from these portrayals of the characters. After a tryout in Chicago, the show is slated to open on Broadway in April 2010. |
