Course Description

Date: September 22 

Title: Sing a Song of Guns: American Musical Theater (Virtual event)

Time 11:00AM – 12:00 PM

Presenter:  Toby Zinman

Description:  Karl Marx told us that, “History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.” Perhaps it repeats for a third time as musical theatre. This talk is a look at both the history of America and the history of the American musical, focusing on Stephen Sondheim’s Assassins (on stage at the Arden Theater 9/21- 10/15) and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton, two shows which have a surprising amount in common, besides being fabulous entertainment.

**Event is for current OLLI Members Only**
