An imaginative indie-rock musical by Guster’s Ryan Miller and
Nick Blaemire (Soon, Glory Days) based on the film of the same name.

WANTED: Someone to go back in time with me. This is not a joke. You’ll get paid after we get back. Must bring your own weapons. I have only done this once before. SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED.

After seeing this classified ad, ambitious journalist Darius sets out on an expedition to find its writer. When she agrees to go along for the ride, however, Darius finds herself in way over her head. 

Heartwarming and hilarious, with an electrifying score, Safety Not Guaranteed asks, if you could go back and change your story – would you?

“Ridiculous Fun… Safety Not Guaranteed has an appealingly indie sound and an elemental goofiness. The audience exits the BAM Strong on a high. Outside, I caught myself humming.”
—The New York Times

“Safety Not Guaranteed clocks a win. Ryan Miller and Nick Blaemire’s heartwarming and laugh-inducing musical offers a lively score, six great performances, and a helluva good time.”
—TheaterMania
