UNCLE FESTER

6

ALL (CON’T) AND FAMILY BY AND BY WHEN YOU'RE AN ADDAMS THE STANDARD ANSWERS DON'T APPLY WHEN YOU'RE AN ADDAMS YOU DO WHAT ADDAMS DO OR DIE!

(Applause)

GOMEZ Until next year my beloved ancestors... Back to your crypt.

#2A (WE HAVE) A PROBLEM

(GOMEZ, MORTICIA, GRANDMA, LURCH and PUGSLEY exit. WEDNESDAY remains, looks worried. The ANCESTORS turn to re-enter the Crypt. FESTER clocks WEDNESDAY.)

CONQUISTADOR ANCESTOR Hey, it's locked.

(ANCESTORS freeze)

FESTER That's right. We have a problem.

(DING! Light on WEDNESDAY, holding her crossbow.)

WEDNESDAY

His name is Lucas, Lucas Beineke. And - I'm in love. (group reacts)

FESTER (to the Audience)

That's right. Little Wednesday Addams - that charming, irrepressible bundle of malice who would poison her own brother just for a ride in the ambulance - has grown up and found love.

(LUCAS enters, in love with WEDNESDAY.)

LUCAS Oh, Wednesday! I just wanna lock you up in a little white cottage with a picket fence and an apple tree!

7

WEDNESDAY I like the part about being locked up.

(Lights out on WEDNESDAY and LUCAS. Off this,the ANCESTORS object vociferously. The CURTAIN comes in, eliminating the ANCESTORS.)

FESTER

So here's the deal. Gather around. I'm not letting you back into that crypt until love triumphs.

ANCESTORS But Fest –

FESTER Ah.

(FESTER crosses down as ANCESTORS disappear.)

So who is this Lucas fella? Is he worthy of her? Do they really love each other? What is love anyway? Does this rash look serious to you? So many questions about love. But when you think about it, is there anything more important?

(A HAND extends FESTER's banjolele, and FESTER takes it, accompanying himself as he sings.)

#3 FESTER'S MANIFESTO

LET'S NOT TALK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE BUT LOVE AH - LET'S NOT TALK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE BUT LOVE CAN'T WE TALK ABOUT LOFTY GOALS, MATING SOULS ALTERING MINDS AND FALTERING ROLES LET'S NOT TALK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE...

(CURTAIN opens)

86

SCENE 4

(VAUDEVILLE IN-ONE) (FESTER enters, looking for love.)

FESTER Storm's passed. Think I'll get a little moon.

(calling into the dark void) Ladies, hello.

(The FEMALE ANCESTORS appear, as bathing beauties with parasols.)

Yoo hoo, where are you hiding? Are you playing with me, my only one?

(The MOON enters, shyly.) There you are! Look at her. Lovely, is she not? And so far away. Yes, in matters of love, my dears, distance is our friend. Closeness? No thank you. Quarter of a million miles away - that's a good distance for romance. We never fight, each waning is a heartbreaking separation...

FEMALE ANCESTORS (Ohh!)

FESTER ...Each meeting - a happy reunion.

FEMALE ANCESTORS (Awww!) (The LADIES part, revealing FESTER in a 1920’s style bathing suit, and strumming his banjolele. He looks up at the moon and sings to her--)

#17 THE MOON AND ME

FESTER WHEN THE DAYLIGHT ENDS AND THE MOON ASCENDS I WOULD RATHER BE JUST THE MOON AND ME WHEN I FEEL HER PULL THEN MY HEART IS FULL AND THE NIGHT IS SOFTLY SWEETLY CALLING, "FESTER, LOOK AND SEE" LA LA LA LA LA LA

FESTER 3

MAL appears from behind the tree thrown by what he's just heard. Now FESTER appears.

FESTER Did you hear that?

(Mal nods) The boy was willing to die for love.

(then) Hard to believe he's your son.

MAL (in awe and envy)

He was so happy.

FESTER Remember that? Being happy?

MAL Yeah, What happened?

FESTER You've turned into an unfeeling, rigid, selfish

control freak.

MAL Fester you're a wise person. How can I fix this?

What do I do?

FESTER Don't worry, it will come to you.

FESTERS signals off stage.

MAL I wasn't always this way. I was happy-go-lucky once. I told jokes and played the guitar and slept until

noon. But then you get a wife and a kid and a mortgage...

ALICE appears. Mal stops when he sees her.

FESTER Keep going.

MAL But what do I say?

FESTER Just remember how you felt the first time you saw

her.
