ASSASSINS
Jun 6 @ 8:00 pm
The Warehouse Theatre

A journey through the dark side of the American dream, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman’s Tony-winning musical Assassins explores the lives of nine men and women who either killed (or tried to kill) one of the Presidents of the United States. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald and beyond, the stories of our country’s most successful and would-be assassins intersect in unexpected ways, creating a powerful, yet unnervingly funny look at some of the most shocking moments in US history.

WHY SEE THIS SHOW:  Do you like musicals by the greatest theatrical composer of our time?  Do you like dark comedies? Unusual premises?  Incredible production values including immersive seating and, as always, a live orchestra?  You’re in luck, we have ASSASSINS for you!

WHO SHOULD SEE THIS SHOW?  If you liked the dark exploration of history in BLOODY BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON, the absurdity of the premise of URINETOWN THE MUSICAL, or the energy of an EVIL DEAD or NATIVE GARDENS, this show is for you.

THIS SHOW CONTAINS MATURE LANGUAGE, THEMES, AND SIMULATED GUN VIOLENCE.
