Barker, NY - The cast of The Addams Family Musical at Barker Central School, perform a dress rehearsal for a Friday night opening show.

“THE ADDAMS FAMILY MUSICAL” at Barker Central School!

Get ready for a haunting as the ADDAMS FAMILY comes to Barker! For the past three months, Barker Junior-Senior High students have been portraying ghosts, spirits, and the other than “normal” members of the Addams Family and their many beloved ancestors. The Addams Family Musical will be presented at Herbert Ludwig Fine Arts Hall, 1628 Quaker Road, Barker, NY 14012, on Fri. March 13th @ 7pm, Sat. March 14th @ 7pm, and Sunday, March 15th @ 2pm.

For anyone who remembers the Addams Family TV program from the 60’s or has seen the popular reruns, the characters and scenario in this musical version will be hauntingly yet charmingly familiar. Within the kooky, upside-down world of the Addams Family, to be sad is to be happy, to feel pain is to feel joy, and death and suffering are the stuff of their dreams. The Addamses have lived by their unique values for hundreds of years and Gomez and Morticia, the patriarch and matriarch of the clan, would be only too happy to continue living that way. Their dark, macabre, beloved daughter Wednesday, however, is now an eighteen year-old young woman who is ready for a life of her own. She has fallen in love with Lucas Beineke, a sweet, smart boy from a normal, respectable Ohio family — the most un-Addams sounding person one could be! To make matters worse, she has invited the Beinekes to their home for dinner. In one fateful, hilarious night, secrets are disclosed, relationships are tested, and the Addams family must face up to the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations: change.
