REviews

 

Scarily Good

If you are a fan of musicals and can’t choose between the 20 or so on offer at the Fringe, look no further. The Addams Family is, by far, one of the best musicals I have seen, and this production was star quality. When you see it you will wonder why you are not watching this at one of the main theatre’s.

 - Fairy Powered Productions  ★★★★★

 

Spookily entertaining

Spooky, funny and entertaining, Bare Productions have brought back to life one of the most dysfunctional family’s in the world in the kooky Addams Family musical at this year’s Fringe.
