Maidenhead Operatic Society presents the hilarious and spooky The Addams Family musical!
Based on the comic strip by Charles Addams which was made into a cult TV series, it’s all about a creepy, kooky and mysterious family who are obsessed with the macabre.

With memorable songs and riotous comedy, this show will be an absolute scream!
