Swept Away Tickets & Information

After sold-out runs from coast to coast, Swept Away storms Broadway this fall.

When a violent storm sinks their whaling ship off the coast of New Bedford, Mass., the four survivors face a reckoning: how far will they go to stay alive? And can they live with the consequences? With music and lyrics from The Avett Brothers (“America’s Biggest Roots Band,” Rolling Stone), whose 2004 Mignonette was inspired by an 1884 shipwreck and the struggle of four men to survive, Swept Away is an electrifying, soul-stirring new musical exploring how facing tragedy can open the door to forgiveness…if only we’ll let it.

From the chart-topping folk-rock band The Avett Brothers comes “a spellbinding tale” (The Washington Post) of shipwreck, salvation and brotherhood set on the high seas. An odyssey of “mythic proportions” (San Francisco Chronicle), Swept Away features a book by Tony Award®-winner John Logan (RedMoulin Rouge! The Musical), direction by Tony Award-winner Michael Mayer (Spring AwakeningAmerican Idiot), and choreography by Tony Award nominee David Neumann (Hadestown).
