Get ready for a delightfully spooky and entertaining theatrical experience as University School of Nashville's Peabody Players present "The Addams Family: School Edition" in Durnan Auditorium.
Based on the beloved characters created by Charles Addams, this hilarious musical comedy brings everyone’s favorite eccentric family to the stage. Audiences will be welcomed into the wonderfully strange world of Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester, and the rest of the Addams family as they navigate love, family, and the unexpected challenges of growing up.
When Wednesday Addams falls in love with a seemingly ordinary young man from a very different family, the Addams household is turned upside down. With secrets, surprises, and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, the family must find a way to embrace change while staying true to what makes them unique.
Featuring memorable music, lively choreography, and plenty of Addams-style humor, this production promises an unforgettable experience for audiences of all ages.
Join the Peabody Players in Durnan Auditorium for an evening (or afternoon!) of spooky fun!

High School students traveled to Murfreesboro last weekend for the Model UN conference last weekend, which provided opportunities for leadership and collaboration across grade levels. They had the highest number of resolutions per capita in the General Assembly, had the highest-ranking resolution presented to any committee, and earned awards for Outstanding Statesperson & Outstanding Resolution.
With trail names like Megawatt, Electric Avenue, High Voltage and Livewire, the mountain bike team knew it was time to pedal out some extra watts for their NICA/TICL State Championships at Raccoon Mountain, and survive the technical trails above Chattanooga full of boulder gardens, rock drops and sandy rubble.
Winged Deer Park and trails in Johnson City hosted our 4th race on Sunday October 11th, and despite a bit of hurricane outwash winds and showers - and reduced team numbers due to fall break and distance from Nashville - our racers utilized all available skills and speed which helped “wing" Sophomore Claire Dehner to a 4th place podium spot, our first podium appearance and medal for the season.
Tiger golfers have officially qualified for the region tournament, and our other teams are not far behind. Volleyball sits near the top of the district, finishing up regular season play next week with Senior Night. Girls soccer continues to hold first place in the district after another 9-0 win, and our cross country runners are chasing after some school records. To round it all out, our mountain bike team traveled to Oakfield to continue to improve on their times for the season. There’s plenty more where that came from- so be sure to come out to the River Campus, Sperling Gym, or out on the road to cheer on our Tigers before their seasons end.
