WHEN YOU'RE AN ADDAMS

The opening number from Arrowhead Broadway Company's production of The Addams Family

[@PTUBE101_]

Wow they handled Morticia’s hair getting snagged so professionally that someone could actually think it was planned

[@mollyboggs8558]

this morticia is one of the closest to the original that i've seen in any production of this show. it's very nice

[@Laura-dz1km]

They handled her hair snag really well, very professional

[@rosemary-y4733]

agree, that was smooth ♥️

[@itztocalily9535]

Yea

[@Zarastro54]

The height ratios for the family were perfect. Also, excellent cover for the hair getting stuck.

[@nadineledesma2972]

1:54 lurch is me when things get turnt

[@ameliemay5826]

NADINE LEDESMA LMAO THIS JUST KILLED ME

[@codascheuer8426]

Can we just talk about the musicians in the pit? They play so well, and I love the dance break where it’s just them playing. Also that killer drum solo during death rattle!

[@22xeanah54]

i know! since this is such a long song (including many other long songs) they really deserve a pat on the back❤

[@TubaMaverick]

I wonder why so many versions omit Lurch's grunt at the end of this song....I was in this show last month and I played Lurch, and we kept it in. this is my favorite version that I've found so far.

[@ourlittleways3451]

Carl Trammel Im Lurch in my schools production this year and we have cut it out. This is after having it in, then taking it out, waiting a few months before putting it back in, and then it was out a week later. We decided after sitzprobe, that it would be too hard to slot in and make them stop and learn something new. It would have been good to give Lurch his own ‘moment’ in the song, but move towards the darkness is when we SHINE!!!

[@rowleyjefferson4054]

Carl Trammel LURCH CLAN

[@mechacrane2262]

i prefer the london palladium ver. a little more, but this is a close second

[@reniyahampton3198]

I was so mad when I was in my schools musical they took that out. They also took out Gomez’s line of “several times a day” when Morticia said “you need to really love your wife.”

[@imgonnafillall50characters36]

Frr

[@madisonclaire2760]

morticias hair getting stuck in the jacket is my aesthetic

[@bonnieharrington776]

Madison Claire hi me

[@PTUBE101_]

So smooth

[@doktor_ghul]

This is a superb version...but I have to admit, I like Gomez's original Broadway use of " undecided " in reference to Lurch. Other than that, this is very well done.

[@calebwarner4104]

well they're not there to copy broadway

[@joshuabadal3946]

nobody is going to bring up the whip nae nae that they pulled? nobody? okay.

[@christianszabo4326]

Where

[@calebwarner4104]

you brought it up

[@graceramey4443]

Lurches little point and shimmy giving me SO MUCH LIFE

[@jasminderpinder]

Have to say, this is an excellent production. I've seen many versions but this is by far one of the best. The choreography is fantastic and everyone acting, singing and dancing is on point. Well done!

[@Albionic_]

The costume work here is on another planet! It got chills when all the family and ancestors started dancing together.

[@squirrelgadget3498]

Okay weird story. So I like to swing on the swing in my backyard and listen to music. And I was doing it just now, at 1 am cause I can't sleep. Its pitch black and I'm listening to this, and suddenly when I'm up in the air a furry thing collides into my face, right in my right eye and cheek. It clawed me kinda and knocked my glasses clean off my face and fell behind me. I screamed, freaked out and fell off the swing. Turns out it was a freaking bat! Its alright, it flew away. But holy fuck it scared the shit outta me. And what a song to listen to while a bat flies into my face huh?

[@liviweaver7995]

Oml 😂😂😂😂😂

[@carriemummy]

Very weird and coincidental! I got hit in the face by a bat when I was a teenager when I was getting the washing in off the line in the dark. Both freaky and exciting!

[@Snakepit_Media]

Iconic

[@reaganbramlish5858]

The boy playing pugsly is adorable awww

[@tyusmartin3682]

WHERE CAN I FIND THE FULL VERSION OF THIS COMPANY

[@liviweaver7995]

Can we just talk about how amazing and well organized the choreography was?! I'm impressed!

[@blehh3093]

I love the choreography for this

[@undeadcorpse4693]

Uncle Fester Was Throwing It Back 👀😳😳

[@laurenrogers]

This is one of the best Gomez’s I have ever seen

[@hamiltonlover3429]

did morticias hair get stuck? if so XD

[@erickxresendiz4878]

the ancestors were so good

[@aromaticchicken518]

"at least once a day" lol

[@Snakepit_Media]

I do believe the tempo is somewhat sped up from the original, which I do like a lot. It's a fun challenge for the actors and musicians!

[@user-oc3zl1vw2p]

FINALLY SOMETHING THAT FITS VAGULEY WITH MY SCRIPT 😂

[@Blackcop33]

the ancestors OMG they’re so good

[@cannonjovlogs4749]

The straight face hair snag!!!! Talent!

[@kianwright1]

I realy want to see the whole thing x

[@puppyash9656]

Props to the guy playing Lurch - absolute dead-pan face throughout.

[@catgirl7765]

This ought to be Moaning Myrtle's new home-plenty of ghosts to hang out with and safe-no-one would ever even think about throwing a book-or any object-at an Addams ghost!

[@gavinmariani6416]

I absolutely love this

[@aussiecoastie72]

Excellent 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 great production number .

[@user-dj4rt7jb5g]

Браво❤

[@devyngreen4066]

i honestly love this

[@sophiisherman7463]

This was amazing!!

[@Lee_gray-qn7uc]

i was in my middle school production of the addams family jr and i played uncle fester. see how similar and different the productions are is really cool.

[@LylaTheSunshineGal]

Yes she si my favorite

[@JoshPearceTheNintendoGamer]

honestly great

[@user-momiji34]

Seriously,I need the full version.

[@mariazierolf]

Why does it say “Arrowhead Broadway Company” if this is a high school production?

[@aleahrtw]

Ria 17 instead of just calling it show choir we call it broadway company because it is an auditioned group of sophomores-seniors who do Broadway musical productions! Not sure how the name came to be entirely Lol

[@mariazierolf]

Aleah Travers okay? Sorry, still don’t really get the Broadway Company thing just because I️ know of a lot of high schools that do the same thing but just call themselves a theatre company. Thanks for the reply and info, it sounds like a fun tidbit for you guys (I’m assuming you’re a part of the company) thank you!

[@pblack19141]

Wow, like the way that this number is staged. I felt as if I was watching the Broadway production. Well done. 🧟‍♀️🧟‍♀️🧟‍♀️⚰⚰⚰💀💀💀

[@dagnycanzoneri6471]

Gomez is lacking an accent but other than that this is amazing. Morticia is really great.

[@carriemummy]

Very good! I assume it's am dram but they are great!

[@vercakotvova8951]

czech variante forever😍

[@prncssfae]

gomez sounds like stewie

[@luztresa2413]

[@esclavodelsistema9783]

1:10

[@vidsbyliv9016]

[@LylaTheSunshineGal]

I love Wednesday

[@luztresa2413]

vamos 6 GRADOOOOO si soy rara

[@linzaylynnz-tv3hq]

He grabed her hair och

[@rosemay1286]

Lurch is acc me

[@kittybasketballgaming4285]

Kevin is still superior

[@cutthroat_katianna]

is that jojo siwa as one of the ancestors

[@rosalbamedina3606]

Bts

[@maddiemichigan]

the ancestor's entrance was very lazy also when start singing but the rest is ok but i have to admit when its the line dance to the death rattle is really good but really you have try not to smile

[@mitchelpaulus4078]

MeMe Smile7 they did awesome and I saw almost no cracks in character. The entrance was great

[@daliah8883]

i think people just complain about everything. you seem to be complaining about smiling, another commenter was complaining about *not* smiling.

[@davideffiong1198]

A little bit too much on the dead side of things. And not in a good way.

[@ellaserwin292]

David Effiong oh shut up. Broadway worked very hard on this. my bro is in this so just shut up

[@ameliac2144]

Ella Serwin They're aloud to have an opinion, and, to be honest, I agree. They don't seem to be enjoying their performance and just seem a bit... well... dead

[@aleahrtw]

Amelia C well we were kind of emerging from the dead. Stylistic choice to dance with structure as opposed to show smiles and jazz hands. We won a Tommy award for outstanding musical and have been asked to perform at the Tommy Awards show. Which is a big deal. Not many high schools can pull something like this off. Let alone receive astonishing awards for overall performance.

[@ellaserwin292]

Aleah Travers thank you

[@ellaserwin292]

Amelia C shut it

[@daisym2014]

It was too fast

[@twentyonelives6688]

They were alot slow on the singing. Not alot of dancing, it kind of made me cringe, fester opened the door to the ancestors too early, but im sure you all did your best
