Swept Away

Untitled

When Allen suggested that we go see a new musical by the Avett Brothers about 19th century whalers adrift at sea that resort to cannibalism, we all thought he was being a little nutty. But then we actually saw Swept Away on its closing night at DC's Arena Stage and realized Allen was percipient. It's the best cannibal musical I've ever seen (having never seen Sweeney Todd) and the only thing missing was a kracken.
