Live on Broadway, The Avett Brothers’ SWEPT AWAY is a “spectacular” New York Times Critic’s Pick. This breathtaking new musical and “spellbinding” (The Washington Post) experience will make your soul feel brand new. “It’s riveting! One of the most captivating tales on Broadway in just 90 nail-biting minutes” (Entertainment Weekly). Get ready for one hell of an adventure. 

A crew of sailors embark on a whaling expedition, braving the long days with hard work and strong whiskey. But when the ship capsizes, they’re forced to look deep within themselves to help each other survive. Tony Award® winner John Gallagher, Jr. delivers “a fierce star turn” (The Wall Street Journal), two-time Tony nominee Stark Sands is “magnificent” (The Wrap), “Adrian Blake Enscoe is a revelation” (Deadline) and “Wayne Duvall gives a stellar performance” (EW).

Featuring a score from “The Avett Brothers at their best” (The Daily Beast), a book by Tony winner John Logan (Red, Moulin Rouge! The Musical) and direction by Tony winner Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening, American Idiot), “this stunning musical will blow you away” (The Wrap). 

“Set sail for the Longacre Theatre as soon as possible and take in a secondary viewing–after the adrenaline wears off, of course” (EW).
