Scotts Valley High School Drama presents its spring musical: The Addams Family. There will be 10 performances over three weekends beginning Friday, April 12, thru Saturday April 27, at the Scotts Valley Cultural and Performing Arts Center, 251 Kings Village Drive, Scotts Valley.

The show, written by Rick Elice and Marshall Brickman, is about Wednesday Addams, who has now grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family– a man her parents have never met.
She confides in her father, then begs him not to tell her mother. One fateful night the family hosts Wednesday and her young man for dinner.
The show is double cast, and features a dance corps plus a large group of “ancestors.”
Directors are Kendra Kannegaard, a teacher, and Kavin Pugazhenthi, a student who also plays the role of the patriarch Gomez Addams.
Tickets are $18 general and $15 for students at showtix4u.com. If online tickets are sold out, a limited number of tickets will be sold at the door.
