Western Reserve Playhouse Presents

“Assassins”

By Stephen Sondheim and  Book by John Weidman

Directed by Dawn Sniadak-Yamokoski  - Musical Direction by Bryan Bird and
Dave Stebbins

Synopsis:

A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, Assassin's combines
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.

Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried
to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical
"revusical" that explores the dark side of the American experience. From
John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John
Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish
roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from
different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to
harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream.

This cast is filled with new talent on our stage and some fan favorites.
