EPISODE 2: “Tragedy and Comedy”

The stage is set. The war is over. But for John Wilkes Booth, the fight has just begun.

In Episode Two of The Ides of April, we follow Booth’s transformation from frustrated actor to radical conspirator. From failed kidnapping plots to brazen plans of coordinated assassinations, Booth and his band of loyal followers edge closer to infamy. We trace the roots of his hatred, his obsession with legacy, and the moment Lincoln’s final speech pushed him over the edge.

🎙 Alec Baldwin guides us through Booth’s personal reckoning, the cultural divide that fueled him, and the final days before the nation’s most devastating political murder.
