Margaret Williams Theatre

Our nation's most notorious assassins gather on stage to violently pursue a twisted American Dream.

A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, Assassins combines Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, Assassins is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written.

Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical "revusical" that explores the dark side of the American experience. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream.

Margaret Williams Theatre

Turing is an opera about the life of Alan Turing as imagined by a digital mind that his work engendered. With music is by William Antoniou, the opera depicts Turing鈥檚 intelligence work during World War II as he develops a machine that becomes capable of decoding nearly every piece of intercepted German intelligence. It also dramatizes Turing鈥檚 broken engagement to a fellow cryptanalyst and the brief affair that lead to his conviction for homosexual acts and his subsequent suicide. The meta-digital form of the work honors Turing鈥檚 vision for the future of machine intelligence. Turing was originally commissioned and performed by the National Opera Of Greece, and then later re-developed and read in New York at National Sawdust.  This area premiere performance will realize an expanded vision, and feature 小欧视频 students and professionals.
