The Addams Family and San Diego Junior Theatre invite you to kick off Junior Theatre’s 67th Season in Balboa Park
Students from throughout San Diego County are performing in San Diego Junior Theatre’s premiere production of The Addams Family. The musical tells the story of Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, who has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family — a man her parents have never met. When Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before — keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s ‘normal’ boyfriend and his parents. The Addams Family, a musical based on the characters Charles Addams created 50 years ago, runs October 24 through November 9 with an ASL-interpreted performance on November 8. Tickets range from $11 to $15 and are available online at juniortheatre.com or by calling (619) 239-8355.
Children will be free with the purchase of an adult ticket for the Halloween night performance. Children will enjoy trick-or-treating on stage and participation in an audience-wide costume contest.
Directed by San Diego Junior Theatre’s artistic director, Rayme Sciaroni, The Addams Family is a show packed with great songs and hilarious characters, and is one that will entertain the whole family.
San Diego Junior Theatre’s 2014-2015 Winter classes and camps are now online!
To kick off JT’s celebration of The Balboa Park Centennial, we’re offering Acting III: a Site Specific Theatre Class on Tuesdays from 4:30 – 6pm.
Students in grades 7 – 12 will explore the park as artists and actors! Each class will examine a new location in the park, where students will create short plays and develop characters based on the events and people of 1915. Students will refine their acting technique and expand their imagination with each location they visit.
At the final class, family and friends will be invited to witness one or more of the plays created by the class – in their unique setting!
