Oswald and the Assassins' Triangle- a new play by Phillip H. McMath

arts, performing · EN-US

This new play by Phillip H. McMath looks at the 58 days prior to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, with a focus on the period in late September when Oswald was in Mexico City. It explores the multiple forces that colluded together to put Oswald in the window of the Dallas Book Depository with a rifle on November 22, 1963. What were these forces? Well, there was Castro to avoid his destruction and the Mafia to avoid persecution. We can’t forget the Russians to avoid another humiliation after the Cuban Missile Crisis. And then there was the CIA to avoid potential elimination. Or was Lee Harvey Oswald simply acting alone? Oswald and the Assassins’ Triangle has been in development since 2011. The research for the historical accuracy of this play included sources such as Brothers In Arms, by Russo and Molton; Passport to Assassination, by Oleg Nechiporenko; JFK and Vietnam, by John M. Newman, and Marina and Lee, by Priscilla Johnson McMillan to name a few
