Assassins December 3, 2012

Roundabout Theatre Company reunites the original cast of the 2004 Tony(R) Award winning production of Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman's 'Assassins' for a one-night only Benefit performance. This striking work looks at the lives, loves and lunacy of nine American assassins, including John Wilkes Booth, John Hinckley, Lee Harvey Oswald and Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme. Both serious and satirical, the musical asks what hunger drove these people to their actions and what binds them all together. Is that drive what makes them quintessentially American?
