Assassins Tickets

Stephen Sondheim’s Assassins is a darkly comedic musical that has been made extremely current. Assassins is a scathing indictment of the “American Dream”, and the alienation that comes from its impossible pursuit. Set against a surreal carnival backdrop, the show depicts nine figures who set out to assassinate American Presidents.  In a world where misfits have become mainstream, and discontent simmers in the American psyche, we examine these hauntingly complicated protagonists as they attempt to convince us that all you have to do is “shoot to win”.

Assassins is presented in the magnificent sanctuary of the First Congregational Church of Long Beach, complete with a full orchestra, ambitious production design, and Landmark’s signature style - theater from the heart of Long Beach.
