What it’s about. This darkly satirical musical reframes American history through the eyes of those who attempted – successfully or not – to kill US presidents. Structured as a surreal carnival sideshow, the piece weaponises American musical traditions – vaudeville, folk ballads, barbershop quartets, patriotic Sousa-style marches and Bacharach pop – to undercut the myth of the “American Dream,” exposing how frustration, alienation and entitlement can curdle into violence.

Who’s in it. Assassins stars Becky Ann Baker as Sara Jane Moore, James Barbour as Leon Czolgosz, Mario Cantone as Samuel Byck and Michael Cerveris as John Wilkes Booth, among others.

How it landed. With an audience score of 10.0/10, Assassins sits among the best-reviewed titles in the catalogue.
