BARRFIELDS Theatre offered something creepy, kooky and wonderfully spooky as audiences were screaming with laughter in the aisles at their new 'The Addams Family' show.

Largs Players are bringing the show to the town and director Maggie Cunningham says that locals are in for a real treat in the lead up to Hallowe'en, with the show continuing until Saturday, October 12.

The ghoulish Addams family are visiting the graveyard for an annual gathering of all family members (living, dead, and undecided) to celebrate what it is to be an Addams.

Uncle Fester stops the Ancestors' return to their graves to enlist their help. He explains that Wednesday, under protest, has invited her new (normal) boyfriend, Lucas Beineke, and his parents, Mal and Alice, to dinner.

Show director for Largs Players, Maggie Cunningham, said: "The comedy is hugely funny, and I think that is why it has lasted so long and had so many different versions, the latest of which is this fabulous stage show. 

"It is a great script and there are lots of very funny scenes."

The show is being performed on Friday at 7.30pm, and Saturday at 2pm and 7.30pm.

The creative team include director Maggie Cunningham, musical director Stuart McArthur and choreographer Sarah Craigmile.
