Photo Flash: The Studio Theatre Tierra Del Sol Presents ASSASSINS

Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman's 30-year-old bold, disturbing and alarmingly funny musical follows 10 assassins, eight presidents, and one America Dream. Assassins is based on an idea by Charles Gilbert, Jr. and inspired by true events following the murders of Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley and John F. Kennedy, and the crude attacks on other sitting presidents. This five-time Tony Award winning musical is a cautionary tale about the pain that comes from going too far, when you attempt to change a nation forever.
