Having run for 722 performances on Broadway and earned a loyal fan base worldwide, this cult classic is now ready to enchant South African audiences.

The Perfect Venue: The Homecoming Centre in Cape Town
The Homecoming Centre, formerly known as The Fugard Theatre, reopened in 2023 as a premier performing arts venue. With its slightly gothic charm and rich history, the Homecoming Centre has hosted numerous acclaimed productions, from The Rocky Horror Show to Kinky Boots, Blood Brothers, and David Kramer’s celebrated musicals. Under the guidance of producer Eric Abraham, the venue has become a renowned boutique theatre that perfectly captures the Addams Family’s offbeat atmosphere, adding to the magic of the production.
