Visit The Addams Family Crypt
The musical story of “The Addams Family,” directed by Lisa-Marie French at Geauga Lyric Theater, is perfect for the Halloween season. The familiar family has older children and new challenges that even involve a crypt full of ancestors.
They’re kooky and they’re creepy, but what family doesn’t have those moments? The cast of “The Addams Family,” running Oct. 23 through Nov. 8, agrees with those sentiments. The cast has repeatedly remarked that the GLTG family has been warm and welcoming, and they are enjoying preparing the tale of dysfunctional relatives to present to packed audiences.
On Oct. 25, after the matinee, enjoy the beautiful vocals of Sarah Edwards-Maag in her debut solo concert, Rhythm and Boos. There will also be a midnight concert after the 8 p.m. Oct. 31 performance.
