The Broadway production of “The Addams Family” musical arrived Saturday in Logan for a matinee and evening performance at the Ellen Eccles Theater.
“We’re very fortunate that they’re here in Logan,” said James D. Kreutzberg, the executive director for the Cache Valley Center for the Arts. “They’re only here for one day.”
According to Adam Shelton, the marketing director for the Center, the show is on its last five-week leg of an 18-month-long tour that included 42 states and China, with their sets in tow.
“The sets were actually the same set design that they used on Broadway,” Shelton said. “So you’re going to see a professional Broadway level set design here.”
According to Shelton, the show used semi-trucks to haul them across America.
“There are two semis parked around the back,” Shelton said. “They are packed solid.”
According to Kreutzberg, it takes 50 people to unload the trucks, a smaller crew to run the show and then another 50 people to load them back up.
Leslee Turner, a resident of Cache Valley, said she was thrilled “The Addams Family” came to Logan.
“It’s actually my daughter’s favorite movie,” Turner said. “So we had to as her birthday is in March.”
“The Addams Family” left on Sunday and headed to Butte, Mont.
