A SCHOOL FAIR ON GRIEVANCE IN AMERICA
Attendance is mandatory
In observance of the nation's semiquincentennial, Last to Leave Theater Company presents Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman's Assassins — a school fair trapped in American limbo. This fair is offered as an exercise in national rehabilitation.
Be witness to nine disillusioned Americans forced to recount and reckon with their place in the national story. Sit inside the history lesson, beneath presidential portraits and among the desks, displays and chalkboards. Fifty seats. No stage. The fair opens. History takes control.
The lesson does not go as intended.
TICKETS
All sales final; exchanges to another performance up to 24 hours before curtain, subject to availability; if a performance is cancelled, full refund.
