A journey through the dark side of the American dream, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman’s Tony-winning musical Assassins explores the lives of nine men and women who either killed (or tried to kill) one of the Presidents of the United States.

From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald and beyond, the stories of our country’s most successful and would-be assassins intersect in unexpected ways, creating a powerful, yet unnervingly funny look at some of the most shocking moments in US history.

“Mr. Sondheim’s astonishing score takes staples of American folk, pop and ceremonial music and turns them inside out.” - New York Times

Like CSC staff and artists, all audience members and patrons must be fully vaccinated*, and provide proof of vaccination and present a photo ID upon entry. 
For those under 18 years of age who do not have a government issued ID, a school ID will be accepted prior to entering the theater. If proof is not provided or deemed ineligible, patrons will not be granted entry.

*The CDC deems the following people to be fully vaccinated: 14 days after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines; 14 days after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine.

MASKS
All patrons must wear a face mask at all times inside the theater, with no exceptions. All masks must cover your nose and mouth areas with no gaps. Our Front of House staff will visually examine all patrons’ masks prior to entry to ensure masks are worn to CDC standards. If a mask is not within compliance with CDC recommendations, CSC will provide a properly fitted mask to those in need.
