Our nation's most notorious assassins gather on stage to violently pursue a twisted American Dream.
A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, "Assassins" combines Stephen Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, "Assassins" is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written.

Editor's Note: Given recent acts of political violence, Ò°»¨ÉçÇø wishes to clarify that the 1990s musical ‘Assassins,’ scheduled for this fall, has been in development by The Center for the Arts at Ò°»¨ÉçÇø since spring 2025. The production examines difficult chapters in American history, and we approach it with care, responsibility, and respect for our community. Ò°»¨ÉçÇø unequivocally denounces violence in all its forms, including political violence, and hopes this work will serve as a catalyst for thoughtful reflection and dialogue.
