The Saviors tickets

See this sparkling, smart new drama from the author of Well, I'll Let You Go. The Saviors plays for a limited time at Atlantic Theater Company, which has launched hits from Spring Awakening to The Band's Visit. The Saviors reunites playwright Bubba Weiler with director Jack Serio, who last year scored a New York Times Critic's Pick with their hit Well, I'll Let You Go at Irondale.

Experience The Saviors off Broadway: in this riveting new play, a man stumbles into a church, disrupting the quiet lives of two altar boys. Devotion, desire, and doubt soon take over as the altar boys must cling to each other in the face of changing faiths, lives, and bodies. A soulful and fierce meditation on the power of religion and friendship, The Saviors is a singular new play from a rising American voice.

Weiler won great acclaim for Well, I'll Let You Go, his mini epic about a community unraveling after one of its own passes away. Formerly an actor in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway, Weiler has a sharp ear for how regular people communicate with one another, and how their hearts also open and close in the face of adversity.

Serio is nicely matched to his style; he won a Drama Desk Award for his work on the intimate production of Danger and Opportunity, set at East Village Basement. Now, Serio returns to stage another premiere about a group of characters in crisis.

Weiler writes with precision realism, capturing the voices of characters not always heard on stage and giving actors sophisticated roles to excavate. Don't miss his next tremendous work.
