Assassins

WHEN YOU'VE GOT A GUN, EVERYBODY PAYS ATTENTION

A theatrical tour-de-force combining Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins.
