A multiple Tony Award–winning tour de force, Assassins pairs Sondheim’s sharp lyrics and music with a panoramic look at America’s celebrity culture and the violent lengths some pursue it via four successful and five attempted presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing, and darkly funny, the one-act “revusical” exposes nine lives—from John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald—as writers Sondheim and John Weidman blur time and space, letting assassins from different eras meet, influence one another, and pursue harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream.
