Assassins
music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
book by John Weidman
directed by
Susannah Martin
music directed by David Möschler

Politics can make anyone feel a little angry. Sondheim lays bare the stories of our nine presidential assassins – drawing back the curtain on a group of Americans that have taken their frustrated feelings too far. Whether unheard, unseen, slighted or wronged, these men and women took action on a government they felt was betraying the people. Their guns and their justifications (set to music!) are just the balm for an election season that is sure to rock the boat.
