Abingdon Theatre Company presents a free reading of BLACK BUTTERFLIES, a new play by Marylou DiPietro, on Monday, October 27 at 7pm, at Abingdon Theate Arts Complex's Dorothy Strelsin Theatre (312 West 36th Street), as part of its ongoing Page2Stage Reading Series. William Ryall, a veteran of 14 Broadway shows including CHAPLIN, ANYTHING GOES, and AMADEUS, is set to direct.

The St. Louis Muny's cast of THE ADDAMS FAMILY, which ran from July 14th through 20th, created a video remix of Beyonce's 'Pretty Hurts.' The remix is very much in the style of the show itself, as each of the actors is clad in creepy, kooky, monster-like costumes.

Cartoonist and creator of the creepy and kooky characters that make up THE ADDAMS FAMILY, Charles Addams, probably never envisioned his work gracing the Broadway stage, but then, could anyone have imagined that such a thing would come to pass. After all, the original single panel cartoons only hinted at the oddly dark nature of his characters. The rest was fleshed out by a terrific TV show that ran in the early sixties, and a couple of feature films that came along in the early 1990's. The current production of the Broadway show is now playing The MUNY, and it's a riotously amusing presentation that had me and my son laughing at the onstage antics (book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice), and bouncing along to the catchy score (Andrew Lippa). This is an exceptional show that features a great cast who seem to be having an absolutely splendid time. The Addams Family is must-see entertainment.

The Muny presents the fourth show of its 96th season, The Addams Family, directed by Marcia Milgrom Dodge, choreographed by Vince Pesce, with musical direction by Ben Whiteley. The show runs through July 20, 2014. Check out highlights from the production, starring Rob McClure and Jenny Powers, below!

In addition, one of the most awarded cabaret singers in New York City (including a Nightlife Award), Lennie Watts, will be performing. And that's not all. There are always surprises at the Broadway Ballyhoo!
