CIVIC THEATRE OF ALLENTOWN PRESENTS ON ASSASSINS

Allentown, PA – On May 6th, 2016, Civic Theatre will open Assassins, which will be produced in Civic's historic 19th Street Theatre and will run through Sunday, May 22nd. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased online at www.civictheatre.com or by calling Civic's Box Office at (610)432-8943.

This groundbreaking American musical will kick off Civic’s summer with a bang! Bold, original, surreal, thought-provoking, and alarmingly funny, this five-time Tony Award-winner investigates the personalities behind nine Presidential assassins and reveals uneasy truths about the American Dream. Hugely resonant in today’s celebrity-obsessed culture, Assassins is brought to life by its desperate, disillusioned, passionate characters. It is Stephen Sondheim's ode to the underbelly of American history.

Age Recommendation: 14+ for mature language and themes, including violence
Civic’s policy is to inform audiences of content, but to let parents, guardians, and teachers make decisions that they feel is most appropriate for youth and teens in their care.

A full schedule of shows is included in this release, along with cast and production staff information. To schedule interviews with anyone involved with Assassins, please contact Civic’s Marketing and Advertising Coordinator, Kate Pistone.
