ASSASSINS ❤️🤍💙

@rogueartiststheatre | August 20–23, 2026

A completely SOLD OUT run!! What a wild little show to get to costume and scenic design, and what a joy to see every seat filled for it.

A very special thank you to Trish Brown @trish.m.brown for being my right-hand man, the only reason anything actually got done, and the best associate designer I could have ever asked for. I genuinely could not have done this without you.

And a huge thank you to Michael McKelvey @doctuhmistuh for inviting me onto this project and giving me the opportunity to design this wonderfully strange show. I’m so grateful you trusted me to help bring this world to life.

So much love for this strange little piece of Americana and everyone who brought it to life. 🇺🇸💥🔫

Now that Pittsburgh is in the naming season, maybe we can get a little help from our friends! Send us your ideas for a slogan to capture the spirit of this unique theatre collective. (Suggestion: maybe lead into “Rogue” or “RatPitt). Best slogan wins two tickets to Assassins! @culturaltrust @wqedfm @tablemagazine_westernpa @triblive @pghcitypaper @pittsburghmagazine @pghartscouncil @seancollierpgh @pittsburghtodaylive
