Choose options
Elizabeth Swados’s 'Runaways' stands as an exceptionally unique, multi-Tony-nominated monument of late-20th-century musical theater innovation, universally celebrated for permanently shifting the parameters of the concept musical revue format since its historic 1978 premiere at the Plymouth Theatre. Weaving a soul-stirring collage of punk-rock rhythms, spoken-word monologues, and world-beat choreography into an unvarnished social critique, the show lets a diverse company map out their search for autonomy. This baseline property remains an absolute anchor of alternative theater curation.
