The show will open on 20 April 2017 at the Festival Theatre in Edinburgh and then continue across the UK.
To further express her excitement for playing the role, Carrie posted a YouTube video that includes an exclusive clip from her audition recording.
Having long wanted to play the part of Wednesday Addams, Carrie said in her video: “Just the idea of auditioning for the people who were going to be making The Addams Family a reality in the UK was unbelievably exciting to me. Let alone the idea of even potentially getting the role, just auditioning was a dream.”
