Assassins by Stephen Sondheim
Truly a masterpiece of theatrical storytelling.
Very Interesting. The first song makes you think it is being glorified, but in truth it is just being explored from their POV. Not really in a sympathetic way, but in an honest way.
This darkly comic musical about the people who killed or attempted to kill Presidents of the United States is a masterpiece about the dark realities of the American Dream. This edition of the script does not include "Something Just Broke," a song added later which many productions justly omit.
