Studio Tenn presents: The Addams Family

Studio Tenn is bringing the beloved musical comedy The Addams Family to the Turner Theater this fall. The story follows Wednesday Addams as she falls for a perfectly normal boy named Lucas and asks her father Gomez to keep it secret from her mother. When Lucas and his conventional parents arrive for dinner at the Addams mansion, the evening spirals into hilarious chaos, shocking confessions, and culture clashes. Packed with catchy songs, laugh-out-loud comedy, and the quirky characters families know and love, the show celebrates being different and reminds us that family love is unconditional. The production runs just over two hours with a 15-minute intermission and is recommended for ages 13 and up. It's rated PG for mild scary images and weapons use—nothing too intense for most families. Studio Tenn offers several ways to make the show accessible: a sensory-friendly performance with adjusted lighting, sound, and calming spaces; an ASL-interpreted performance; and a talk-back session where you can chat with the artistic director and cast. Tickets start at $30, with discounts available for students ($25 rush tickets), military, educators, and groups of eight or more. Purchase tickets through Ticketmaster.com or the box office at (615) 541-8200.
