That's right theatre fans. The wait is over. One of this season's most highly anticipated shows is finally set to open on the Great White Way. I am of course talking about The Addams Family. The show which began previews at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre back on March 8 is poised to be not only one of this season's biggest hits but one of the biggest hits to open on Broadway in years. Since it began it has continued to gross over a millions dollars every week with reports that the show has an advance of over fifteen million dollars. Not too bad for a show that didn't get the greatest reviews when it opened in Chicago this past November.
Now of course having two big Broadway stars like Tony Award winners Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth certainly helps. Now what the critics will say is anybody's guess. Ny guess is that The Addams Family will be one of the those rare shows that will be a success no matter what the critics say. Don't forget that Wicked didn't get very good reviews and it continues to sell out night after night since it opened over six years ago. Will The Addams Family have the same luck? We will soon find out. Be sure to check out Friday's blog as I will post the reviews. Here's to the cast and crew of The Addams Family. Break a leg.
