Assassins

By Stephen Sondheim & John Weidman

2013

In America’s short history, nine men and women have killed or tried to kill the American president. Assassins asks what hunger drove these people to do what they did? What binds them together? Could you be tempted to shoot the president?

Assassins features a stylish score by Tony and Academy Award-winning composer Stephen Sondheim (Sweeney ToddCompanySunday in the Park with George) and a witty, provocative book by John Weidman.

Bold, original, unsettling, but also wonderfully funny, this is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written.

Presented by the Rough Magic SEEDS in the Project Arts Centre.
