Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman's musical drama finally arrives on Broadway. Ironically, the two-year delay of the Roundabout’s revival of Assassins might have been the best thing for the show...

Could not agree more. I literaly was on the verge of sobbing after the JFK shooting scene and needed the Finale to let me get there, and Something Just Broke brought me back to reality. Zangara was also over the top for me. He has been living with pain his whole life, there is a human story there, not just anger, I wish he would have explored that. I didn't see TAKE ME OUT, but I hear is the same character as the one O'Hare playes in Assassins.
