TWO SHOWS ONLY!

Thank you to everyone who came out to support and enjoy The Addams Family!
Special thanks to our incredible team & ensemble for "pivoting so much that we're dizzy" (and our muscles ache from moving all the things so many times) and creating such a joyous community event and beautiful fun show!
Kudos to all!

We're so sorry if you were unable to join us for our truncated performances - or missed our announcements and thought the show was still on.
We thank everyone for their patience, understanding a support. We'll share pictures soon. And our undying thanks to Sam B, The Vermont College of Fine Arts, & Barre Opera House.

Eric Love is back to direct this Spooky Spectacular!

In The Addams Family, America's darkest family comes to life in this original musical about love, family, honesty and growing up.

This kooky Broadway musical comedy is an explosion of outrageous characters, celebrating the weirdness in all of us.

It’s gothic.
It’s campy.
It’s full of heart.


And it's Full of great music, fantastic dance sequences, and fabulously over the top characters.

This goth-feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, encouraging love, acceptance and staying true to yourself!

Among others, The Addams Family features Taryn Noelle, Kathleen Keenan, and a host of local triple-threat teens, and stage veterans in their LNT debut.


UPDATED SHOW DATES: Curtain is 7:30pm Sat July 22;  and 2pm Sun, July 23

Buzz Info

Lost Nation Theater is a magical place to come together and share stories.


I first had the honor of acting at LNT when I was 22 in The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Abridged. Fourteen years later, this will be my twelfth show with the company. I love working with Kathleen and Kim in the beautiful City Hall, staying with my host family the Snells, and enjoying the amazing community of Montpelier. The 22 actors in this production are super talented, the designers are exquisite, and the LNT staff is going above and beyond to bring this enormous Broadway musical to the stage. We can't wait to see you and your whole family at the theater!

- Eric Love

 

It's so fun and exciting that there are the multiple genres of both music and movement that are built right into the score! There are so many fun and exciting opportunities to explore styles and genres all within one musical!
