Assassins is a bold, razor-sharp musical that dives into the minds of nine people who killed or tried to kill a President of the United States, blending dark comedy with chilling truths.
Set in a surreal carnival, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman’s show exposes their motives – from fame-seeking to delusion – against the backdrop of a warped American Dream, in a mix of ballads, anthems and biting satire.
