Take everyone’s favourite loveable ghoulish family, an original score, and the most talented bunch of student doctors and you’ve got three days of knockout musical performances by Liverpool School of Medicine performing arts society, Artefacts.

The Addams Family The Musical sees daughter Wednesday Addams introduce the family to her love interest - a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family. What could go wrong?

The show was directed by Student Doctors Lily Jones and Yasmin Tunnah, Dance Directors for Artefacts, who are both currently completed an intercalated degree. Lily and Yasmin count the musical as one of the top highlights of their time at Liverpool School of Medicine.

The performances involved actors, dancers and musicians

We had the most incredible time directing Artefacts Presents: The Addams Family The Musical. We are so proud of what everyone in cast, band and backstage achieved.

"Thank you to everyone who supported us in coming to watch - we hope you enjoyed watching our performances as much as we enjoyed putting on the musical."

The shows were attended by staff and students alike across the three days, with Dean of the School of Medicine Professor Hazel Scott taking to Twitter to share her praise of the excellent performance.

Congratulations Artefacts. We’re already looking forward to whatever you have up your sleeves next!
