Why does Wednesday respond to "wait" when she is commented on her dress?

InvaderRory

She responds with "wait" because she is implying someone will die (most likely because of her).

Question

Am I supposed to cry when someone I obviously love has passed away?

Community Answer

No, Wednesday wouldn't do that. She would actually be fascinated with death and all the gory details about it. But if it's someone to whom you were extremely close, then go ahead and cry. Crying is a normal part of grieving.

Question

Why does everyone at camp want her to be happy and smile?

Community Answer

In the movie they see her as macabre, and single her out because of this. Because the people who work at the camp want everyone to be happy, they try to make Wednesday just like them. They also want her to participate in the activities.

Question

Would she wear a cross?

Community Answer

Wednesday's family isn't very religious, so I'd say no, she wouldn't. However, if it looks Victorian, maybe you could make it work.

Question

Do you have to die your hair? Or can you just use colored hair spray?

Community Answer

You don't have to dye your hair. Colored hair spray or a wig will work, or just braid your own hair and don't worry about the color.

Question

How do I talk like Wednesday?

Community Answer

Speak in a monotone voice and try your best to seem bored with everything. Wednesday is rarely ever cheery and is very dismal; her voice should reflect this.

Question

What kind of items would Wednesday not leave home without?

Her sarcasm and sharp, piercing look. When you see Wednesday in the movies, she doesn't have anything on her. Well, besides her Cyanide.

Question

What can I wear if I don't have a dress?

Community Answer

Simple, modest, dark clothes will still give the Wednesday effect. While the clothing is important, the most important part is having her attitude and wit. Of course, you could always buy or borrow a dress, or even make one out any simple black fabric.

Question

How can I avoid breaking character?

Community Answer

Play the character with intention. If you don’t naturally have a Wednesday-like personality, go so far as to make a point to be unsmiling and dark. It is much easier if that is your natural personality (obviously), or if you’ve been at it for a while.

Question

What jacket would Wednesday Addams wear if it was really cold?

She would wear something slightly elegant, black, and mysterious looking. Maybe a simple black poncho with pompom tassels would do it.

What would qualify as an appropriate situation in which Wednesday Addams would smile?

A death or a natural disaster. Wednesday rarely smiles, and when she does, it appears terrifying and frightening.

You can always use a foundation or concealer to cover your freckles. If you can't do that, it's not that big of a deal.
