  • 1.  Choosing a Musical

    Posted 05-02-2019 05:51

    Hi Everyone,
    I am wondering if any of you have directed The Adams Family (musical) with high school students, and if so, how did it go in terms of ticket sales and student enjoyment? 
    Also, if anyone has any recommendations for a family-friendly musical with a predominantly female cast and a minimalistic set, it would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.
    Best,

    I HIGHLY recommend The Addam's Family!  This was my first show to have sell-out crowds, and I'm still noticing larger audiences since that production.  The students loved the production and it is family friendly.  I can't recommend it highly enough!!

    We did Addams Family two years ago and it was a huge success!  The students and community loved it and we sold out two of three performances (house of 750).  Super-fun show to direct--I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it.
