Don't miss your chance to experience the captivating drama of SWEPT AWAY, as its highly-demanded run has been extended through January 14, just three days away!
Due to an overwhelming response from our audience, the extended two-week engagement of SWEPT AWAY is approaching its final curtain call. Join us on this gripping journey as the narrative unfolds when a violent storm sends their whaling ship into the depths off the coast of New Bedford, Massachusetts. In the aftermath, the four survivors find themselves at a crossroads, forced to confront the ultimate question: how far are they willing to go to cling to life? And, perhaps more importantly, can they come to terms with the repercussions of their choices?
Featuring compelling music and lyrics from The Avett Brothers, renowned as "America’s Biggest Roots Band" by Rolling Stone, SWEPT AWAY draws inspiration from their 2004 album "Mignonette," which was itself inspired by an 1884 shipwreck and the harrowing struggle for survival by four men. This electrifying and soul-stirring new musical delves into the depths of human resilience, exploring the profound impact of facing tragedy and the potential for forgiveness that emerges from such challenging circumstances, if only we are willing to embrace it.
Secure your tickets now for this unforgettable theatrical experience before the extended run concludes on January 14!
