This show was performed in a 3/4 thrust. Each actor was wearing a microphone. Our production of Assassins focused on how america has become a factory, creating the assassins through the failure of the american dream. One of the challenges was large donut set piece that operated to bring the assassins on stage during the first number and to assist in scene changes. The machine itself was very loud, so that was incorporated into the sound design as part of the machine of america.
