Runaways is a Tony®-nominated Broadway musical from 1978, devised by Elizabeth Swados through workshops with young people who had lived on the streets of New York City. A collage of songs, dances and spoken word pieces about running away from something – perhaps a home, a parent, a partner, a predator, themselves – this musical is fueled by the energy and resilience of young people. With a mold-breaking, multicultural folk, jazz, pop and rock score, Runaways explores the substitutes we find to deal with the loss of family, however effective or self-destructive they may be.

Content warnings: strong language, abuse, suicide, and substance abuse.

Runaways  is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
