ASSASSINS- Something just broke/Finale (Scene #17)

[tomatoherb]

That ending...so unexpected...gah. Thank you for posting this. I kind of wish there were a full staged/concert version on here with an orchestra and whatnot, but there was a lot of talent in this production.

I have a question: When the actor the Proprieter is singing here (as well as in How I saved Roosavelt, and I feel kinda stupid for asking this), is he supposed to be himself, or another character? I thought it would be interesting if you have the Balladeer and Proprieter on two different sides, one encouraging the killers, and the other expressing dissaprooval, and for the Balladeer to become Oswald, the killer, while the Proprieter becomes a citizen who cares. Is that it, or am I crazy?

[GaryAnyanka]

Chilling ending. Great show!

[wjrfec41]

omg LOVE the ending

[shadowhunter483]

I like the ending, but I'm curious, one of the versions I saw had the assassins aim their guns at the crowd and fire to end the song, what prompted the change?

I read an article where it says when Charles Gilbert, Jr.(This was based on his idea) directed a production which ended with the proprietor holding out a gun to the audience, saying "who's next?" His version had Artie Bremer and John Schirk with different songs. His version haunts me to this day!

I love the ending!

[amandakuchinski]

want to hear a funny tidbit? the kid, Maxx, told me that his exact thoughts when he is looking at the gun are this: "this is the gun I am going to shoot george bush with" haha oh innocent youth....

[Tylewis365]

such an amazing show... excelent job!

[celluloidcity]

wow, that ending was chilling!!

[moldboy]

I agree! That's such an amazingly fitting ending for the show! Great job!

[tignor]

I got chills too. Amazing thing to do that on a You Tube video. I can only imagine what I would have felt in the theatre. Great job.

The housewife has a very good voice.

[Beedledeedledee]

i know! she's amazing

[Beedledeedledee]

She's better than the housewife on my cd

[apyrozrage]

The ending with Booth passing on the gun was brilliant...I've never seen it done that way. Awesome job, ya'll!

Loved it!

[bryceep]

Not bad! I liked it.

[MitchConnor83]

To say the least, her singing is significantly better than your spelling.

[back2life]

Highly enjoyed the end of the production. - nicely done.

[DJBinAZ]

my favorite production to date. I was there that day (congrats!) I didn't know anyone in the cast other than Maxx which made it better for me to see it as a fresh show. What a great cast.

I like how you have the assassins say "the president's been shot" instead of the same person. Very effective.
