Synopsis

“If I told you what I really know about the assassination, it would be very dangerous to this country.”

– J. Edgar Hoover, F.B.I.

This is the story of John F. Kennedy, starting in 1959 with his bid for the US presidency and following events through to his assassination in November 1963.

The casting is very flexible – the original production was performed entirely by young people – and large TV screens are used around the stage to display and rear project photos and film of the Kennedys, America and the world.
