The Addams Family began in 1938 as a series of single panel cartoons published in The New Yorker, created by cartoonist Charles Addams. Since then, they have been adapted into a television series, an animated series, and films. So, it was just a matter of time before it ended up as a staged Broadway musical, right? This show has been re-tooled for the national tour, and it kicks off The Fox's Broadway series.
Musicals that have been adapted from popular franchises don't tend to fare too well with NYC critics, and it opened last year to some nasty reviews, but who the hell cares about theatre reviews anyway?! …Oh wait...
