Come in Costume!

Why just watch the Addamses when you can join their world?

We invite you to dress the part — whether it’s Morticia’s gothic glamour, Gomez’s dashing charm, Wednesday’s brooding chic, or even Uncle Fester’s moonlit glow.

Costumes are especially encouraged during our near-Halloween weekend shows (October 24–26), when we’ll host a costume contest at every performance.

Prizes will be awarded for:

  • Best Adult Costume

  • Best Kid Costume

So let your spooky side shine! Whether you arrive as a mysterious Phantom of the Opera, a creepy cousin, or a delightfully kooky character of your own invention, the Addams Family mansion doors are open — and the spotlight could be yours.

Keep your costumes safe and family-friendly — see our FAQ section for detailed guidelines.
