Through the rain to be warmed (and chilled) by the campfire glow of "Swept Away," the perfect musical for the dark of winter. The kind of story - of a shipwreck - that hypnotized me as a child. Still does, it turns out. With bluegrass-folk that has a narrative drive all its own.

All aboard who are coming aboard! ⚓ We’re proud to announce the cast and creative team manning the ship (or should we say trapped in the life boat?) for “Swept Away” @SweptAwayFans! This soul-stirring musical from @theavettbros sets sail November 25. (1/2)
Recently auditioned for a lead role in a studio film. Met the director, producers, everyone... There was major plot dependent on the actor being latino.
They cast a white guy.

A very useful thread. Thanks Stef!
