Do you know if it was hard to get the wensday part? I’m trying out for a play for the first time and the only character that matches my description in this musical is wensday or one of a ancestor and a long shot is pugsly (which would be halarious) im kinda nervous lol

[@MrDerpy-ge7vq]

SAME but bestie got an ancestor like me

[@tristanbreckenridge]

My high school actually just did Addams Family not too long ago! We had such a blast! I played as Lucas and the girl that played Wednesday was really good! This was absolutely phenomenal 👏 👏👏

[@meganmakenziekolod]

Thank you so much 🙌🏻

[@sylviemay5230]

We did it and I was one of 3 lead ancestors and I got to ‘guide the arrow’ just me as it was t a massive production it was so fun 🤣🤣🤣 a month later and I’m still coming back to this

[@jennakate6042]

This is great, there is just one thing bothering me. Wednesday is supposed to have braids

[@meganmakenziekolod]

Hey Jenna! Thank you for the compliment!! Have you’ve seen the original Broadway Musical version of the show that this song is from? In the Broadway version Krysta Rodriguez plays Wednesday, and does not have braids. Wednesday is grown in the Broadway musical, and is about to be engaged and gets married at the end of the show. Since she plays an older Wednesday in the Broadway version, she doesn’t have braids. Hope that answers your question 😊

[@vivianwaldrop726]

Megan Makenzie Kolod Lol actually that answers my question, I was wondering if she was still young or not

[@itbearmi]

If you look for "Clandango", that song was the initial song envisioned for this play. It has Wednesday's braids being cut off to show that is now a woman. It was cut out to be replaced with "When your an Addams". It makes more sense with the story, but "When your an Addams" is a better production number.

[@SillyFish0964]

My school did this musical, and I was one of the ancestors who was in this scene :) ( but I was the florist ancestor and I was the only one who positioned her to point at Lucas)

[@mikepictor]

Oh neat. When I was involved in this show some years back, we did the arrow as a spring loaded thing in the pole he was standing next to. It flipped down, knocked the gimmicked apple in half, so we made it look like it was actually shot at speed. I love this interpretation with the ghosts guiding it.

[@bangchanIover]

ive watched a million versions of the addams family musical and your wednesday has got to be my fav omg

[@libbyfemenella1308]

omg you are so talented! i’ve been invited to a callback for Wednesday (not a typical audition process as we had to switch shows, our original auditions stand but those wanting big roles have to do a callback with this song) As of now, I haven’t really decided if I want to go for it or not. It’s not that I don’t think I can do it, it’s that the only other girl who’s probably going to is my incredibly talented bestie (we’re a small program) and I feel like she will 100% outshine me lol. I hate auditions so it might be too much stress for me to handle. ANYWAYS YEAH! YOU’RE AWESOME! I came here for some insight into the scene and song and I certainly got it. ❤

[@libbyfemenella1308]

Update for anyone who may see this: I ended up not auditioning for Wednesday because I realized that the vocals were going to be too straining for me to pull off consistently for months. My best friend got the part and I’m incredibly proud of her!
