Open Call for Auditions for Ghostlight's Fall Show
Assassins
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by John Weidman
A darkly comic Tony-award winner that examines the motives of the nine notorious Americans who took their shot at the President of the United States. This wickedly subversive spectacle explores the national fixation on celebrity and its violent intersection with the American dream.
