Farley Hall is proud to announce its Spring Production:
Stephen Sondheim's Assassins
directed by Brian Davenport and Margie Janiczek
Assassins is a musical telling the story of all the successful and attempted assassinations of US Presidents. While this may seem like a controvesial subject, the show is really a character piece, chronicling numerous different individual's stories and how their attempts to achieve the American Dream failed them. It is a quite interesting show, and one we are very enthusiastic about putting on.

Audition Information.
Auditions will take place on Monday and Tuesday, February 23 and 24, from 7pm until 10 pm, with call-backs on Thursday, February 26, in the Farley Hall chapel.

Thanks for your interest, and hope to see you there!
A note from the directors:
We hope you are enthused to audition for Farley Hall's production of Assassins. We on the production team are thoroughly pumped to produce a show the likes of which isn't usually seen on Notre Dame's campus.
To accomplish this, we will need the dedication of everyone involved. So far everyone we have behind the scenes is top notch and ready to do their jobs. We think it only fair to inform you of our highest standards and hopes that this show will blow everyone out of the water. Because of this, we are hoping to attract a group of performers that will be equally dedicated and enthusiastic about this production. This is not a show where you can blow off rehearsal or have a ton of things going on at once. Of course we will try to be as accommodating as possible, but with the challenging material and music that the show includes, we will need everyone's consistent time and effort for the show to work. If all this sounds attractive and suitable to you, then we welcome you take part in our quest!
