In the kooky, upside-down world of the Addams Family, to be sad is to be happy, to feel pain is to feel joy, and death and suffering are the stuff of their dreams. Nonetheless, this quirky family still has to deal with many of the same challenges faced by any other family, and the spookiest nightmare faced by every family creates the focus of the musical — the Addams kids are growing up. In one fateful, hilarious night, secrets are disclosed, relationships are tested, and the Addams family must face up to the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations: change. There are no age restrictions for our audiences, however some shows include mature content and viewer discretion is advised.

Timeless, iconic, and beloved, Swan Lake is arguably one of the greatest ballets of all time, an achingly beautiful fairytale that is a must-see for ballet aficionados and newcomers alike. Set to Tchaikovsky’s magnificent score, Ben Stevenson’s Swan Lake is classical ballet at its most heartbreaking and glorious, a love story that is both symbolic and intimate, filled with emotion and humanity. Transfixed from the opening bars of Tchaikovsky’s score, audiences will treasure every majestic moment before them, in a work that is as magnificent as it is unforgettable. NBT is honored to once again to bring this enchanted fable of ill-fated love to the stage for all of Las Vegas to enjoy.
