Talking the Newest Revival of ‘Assassins’

[REBROADCAST FROM December 8, 2021] The Stephen Sondheim musical “Assassins,” about those who have attempted to assassinate American presidents, feels incredibly of-the-moment, even though it premiered in 1990. The 2021 revival was delayed due to COVID, but is now running at the Classic Stage Company. Director John Doyle, no stranger to Sondheim’s work, joins us to discuss the show. He will be joined by actor Steven Pasquale, who plays John Wilkes Booth. “Assassins” is running at Classic Stage Company through January 29.
