1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,960

Speaker 1: you smile less. Are you all right, Lott alert you? Okay,

00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: let's just struggling, so you have to speak up.

00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 2: He's a little bit dead, okay, a little bit dead.

12
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 2: It looks fantastic and it's and I mean Lurch, really

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 2: to put that much effort into looking a little bit.

14
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 4: Dead, she wakes up like this, face of makeup and

15
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 4: all the rest of it. This is what we look.

16
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 4: You two work too hard.

17
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 2: I tell you what. There's not many shows I think

18
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: that there as timeless as The Adams Family. I used

19
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 2: to watch it after school when you know, would have

20
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: The Adams Family bewitched that all beyond you know, in

21
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 2: a row, and it was so clever and witty and

22
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: funny then, and it's just the same clever witty funniness

23
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: still works now.

24
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 3: The characters we recognize them, well, you know, some of

25
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,839
Speaker 3: us have got a mad grandmama. You know, there's there's

26
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 3: something for everyone to acknowledge. He was your favorite character.

27
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: Lurch, it was much but I mean, you know, we'll

28
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: get to this in a second. The relationship between Gomez

29
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: and Watisha, that was something to aim for. That's so beautiful. Now.

30
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: Storyline with the musical, it's a father's worst nightmare. Miss

31
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: is what's happening? Indeed, give us a quick rundown about

32
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: what's what's going on with Wednesday.

33
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 3: Well, it's a coming of age story in that when

34
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 3: Day has found a boy and she has bought the boy,

35
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 3: look us home and he's normal. Oh he's got a

36
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 3: ghoul No, and we have to contend with that. But

37
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: and unfortunately she puts me in a very difficult position

38
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 3: because she says that I can't tell Morticia. So for

39
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 3: the first time in our relationship, I've had to keep

40
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 3: a secret from That's a deal.

41
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 2: Breaker, a really really trouble.

42
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: Does does say the words that's French at any stage.

43
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 3: Around? Yes, indeed she creaks out the French. She dreams

44
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 3: of going to Paris and seeing the sewers and hopefully

45
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 3: by the end, by the end of the musical, I

46
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 3: might be able to fulfill that wish.

47
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 2: We just just touched on the fact that Gomez and

48
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 2: Morticia are a couple goals, you know. I mean, their

49
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 2: relationship is so beautiful. There is a tango scene and

50
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 2: you are a season tango work.

51
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 3: That's not a word, it's in there, and we build

52
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: to that. We earn the right to tango. That's all

53
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 3: we said from the beginning when we're rehearsing to seem

54
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 3: to dance this as more Titia and Gomez. We have

55
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 3: to earn the right to tango, So we have to

56
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 3: build the tension all the leading up to the tango.

57
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, that mustache of yours has got a life of

58
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 5: its time, it does. I'm thinking about Freddy to drift.

59
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 5: But what about props and all the I thank you

60
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 5: so much bake up on even this morning, coming in

61
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 5: a character which is wonderful.

62
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: We appreciate the effort, so that goes into.

63
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 3: It a lot. We have got an incredible team of

64
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 3: makeup artists, all headed up by Manuil Makeup who's done

65
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: all of our designs, and a lot of us are

66
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 3: in the chair a couple of hours. So much for me,

67
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 3: but for Uncle Festa and Hugsley and her Grandmama and Lurch.

68
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: They're in the makeup chair a couple of hours before

69
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 3: the show to it's a big commitment.

70
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: Cousin, it's in it. But she probably had the easiest

71
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 2: costume of.

72
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: All you sitting in the chair like Jeene Simmons of Kiss.

73
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 2: At that time of the morning.

74
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I know.

75
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 6: That's the makeup team and all of the sort of

76
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 6: the props team.

77
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: Yeah.

78
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 6: Everyone, everyone that makes the show so visually spectacular. They

79
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 6: all work so hard, but it looks so good. And

80
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 6: when everything comes together, the costumes, the lights, make up, everything,

81
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 6: it kind of brings the Adams family sort of from

82
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 6: that that TV world into the real world and sort

83
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 6: of almost invites the audience into that that world. They

84
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 6: feel like they're they're there in the Adams family house

85
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 6: with everyone.

86
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: It's like a.

87
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,559
Speaker 2: Character in itself in a way. I understand one hundred

88
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 2: and twenty people audition for this cast. Is that is

89
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: that typical? I like to think of casting for a

90
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 2: show as being like that great movie A chorus line

91
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 2: which would have been to play. That's what I always

92
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: imagine in my because I love theaters. Is it typical

93
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 2: that that many people would audition?

94
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 3: It is at the moment. We've had a unique situation

95
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 3: in Perth during lockdown and now leading into this year,

96
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: and that we were drawing on the incredible talent that

97
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 3: we have in Western Australia and I we do yeah,

98
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 3: we do, yeah exactly, And we have many whopper grads

99
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: in the production, myself included. And it's great that we

100
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 3: have a number of producers now making West Australian work

101
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 3: from the ground up and producing really top quality work

102
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 3: for the West Australian audiences.

103
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: So in a roundabout why, it was a little bit

104
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 2: of an opportunity.

105
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Zealis Productions leapt on that even they had

106
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 3: Cinderella last year to the pantomime, So they're building a

107
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 3: name for themselves as presenting work for families that is

108
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: of the highest quality.

109
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 5: That it's a little connection with modern day references that

110
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 5: are snuck in because you always remember go Mans was really

111
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 5: big on his stock market. Need have his little ticket,

112
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 5: these little coming out and you'd be checking the shares

113
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 5: and the rest of it. Have you've got a bit

114
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 5: of that in there, but with the modern take.

115
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely we do, because we've moved into a new

116
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 3: age and we have our lovely teenagers as and this

117
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 3: is you're getting the Giggas list because you're seeing.

118
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: It had to happen.

119
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 2: I'm getting such a special insight.

120
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 3: Started to lift with my first cup of this morning,

121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 3: and now it's on its way. It's so great, the

122
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 3: joys of the theatric Yes, we have.

123
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: And we've got wonderful props.

124
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 3: We've got this incredible torture chair that's been made for

125
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 3: the production talking we've got Yes, indeed, this is elaborate

126
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 3: organ Everything is flown in and out. It's really clever

127
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 3: design and production for the show.

128
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 2: What about thing? Is thing in it? How could you

129
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 2: have the Adams family without thing?

130
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: We had to have.

131
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:57,559
Speaker 3: Yes, thing does make an impear.

132
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: Is that a tough audition for to just I know?

133
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 3: I mean I think that was why we had to

134
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 3: see one hundred and twenty Yeah, just to find that
