Viewed through the disaffected eyes of a group of Presidential assassins looking to be understood, this Tony Award winning musical is guaranteed to make you think. . .and be thankful that you are not one of the people singing, “The Other National Anthem (For the Ones Who Can’t Get in to the Ballpark)”.
