ASSASSINS- JFK sequence part 2 (Scene #16)

[CrashingCrockery]

(I wonder if this is the ASU I attended years ago in Arizona?)  And yes, I agree with a few on the list, Lee is fascinating and indeed Real Lee was dang cute. I know; subjective, but I mean, look at his early photos from 1959/1962 and he was adorable - even his yearbook photo... And the accents in this production are very good!

i love when they bring him into the line at the end! My high school adv drama is doing this! :D yay youth! Good Job ASU!

[EvilSpoofAuthor]

According to forensic evidence, yes. They proved the bullet came from his gun.

This cast is ELECTRIC! I guy who plays Booth is great

[RedheadedGnomeGirl]

Is it weird that I dislike Jack Ruby for killing Lee Harvey Oswald before he got his fair trial more than I dislike Lee Harvey Oswald for killing the president?

[dunkus42]

mmmmm deeeeaaaddd presideeeeents!!!!!

[eldoradoreefgold]

problematic...lee harvey oswald had a "gunpowder residue parafin test" at dallas directly after being taken into custody...he had not a minutes time from the shots to his capture in the theater to scrub or alter that!that means he shot no shoulder weapon recently as his face and shoulders showed no residue of gun powder from firing a rifle!

[Eagle11800]

Oh, who cares?! It's a fantastic show!

[realbluemeanie]

Who cares? When an innocent man was framed and killed. Would you enjoy his notorious place in history?

[actsmart29]

does anyone else feel terrible for totally sympathizing with them? i feel like i'll turn into Hinkley or something because i'm so interested and can see their side...

[sillyrnu007]

So have I! Oh my God, I just got the Assassins Original Cast Recording, and since then, I've been completely obsessed with John Wilkes Booth. Not because I necessarily approve of what he did, it's just that Victor Garber does such a fantastic job. Wow, I'm so glad that I'm not alone.

[TreMc]

Live theatre does that to people.

[dermie12]

but what about the bad notices?

[progrockcoffee]

@actsmart29 You don't have to sympathize with them. You don't have to pity them. You don't have to respect them. You don't have to hate them. All this musical asks you to do is understand them.

i love Assassins

i've seen it soo many times

i love how it shows different sides and how the assassins had good reasons for killing the president (cept for mabye moore, frome, hickley, and zangra

[mcgregorp]

this is brilliant writing!

[KillingRomance13]

This is my favorite part of the play...

I mean, to think what what was going on in his head. Dag.

I saw this musical last night, I love how it shows the different sides...
