Athenaeum Highlights Addams Family 6/27

“When You’re an Addams” it’s family first and last, but now Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Their daughter Wednesday has found herself “Pulled” out of her usual dark melancholy and falling in love with the sweet and respectable Lucas Beineke. Wednesday wants just “One Normal Night” to host a dinner for Lucas and his parents, Alice and Mal, though her younger brother Pugsley, and their Grandma, Uncle Fester, and butler Lurch, (along with the ever-present spooky spirits of the Addams Ancestors) can’t resist reminding Wednesday that she may be fighting her dark destiny. But, in a shocking turn of events, the entire Addams Family may have underestimated exactly how normal the Beineke Family is to begin with.
