ABOUT THE SHOW:
Twenty-five years ago on September 11th, thirty-eight planes carrying more than 6,000 passengers were diverted to a remote, nearly forgotten Canadian airport on “the Rock” — the locals’ nickname for the island of Newfoundland. Over their next 5 days, an amazing story of generosity, resilience, and unexpected friendship unfolds. Come From Away is a heartwarming, high-energy musical that celebrates the power of kindness and the strength of community in the face of crisis.
With stirring harmonies, unforgettable characters, and moments that will make you laugh and cry, this Tony Award-winning show reminds us that even in the darkest times, humanity shines brightly. Join us for a remarkable story of hope, compassion, and connection.
Come From Away is a cathartic balm for a post-9/11 world… a celebration of the best in all of us.” — The New York Times
