Final weekend for Assassins (Thursday night performance canceled)

Ending this week, the Baton Rouge Little Theatre presents a special engagement of one of the most controversial musicals ever penned—Assassins. Laying bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, this one-act historical “revusical” explores the dark side of the American experience, from John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald. Tickets are $24 at brlt.org. The Thursday evening show has been canceled due to the storm, but shows on Friday and Saturday are still on.
