Come From Away
Come From Away is a profoundly human musical that transforms one of the darkest moments in modern history into a soaring celebration of kindness. Set in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland, the story follows the real events of September 11, 2001, when 38 planes carrying nearly 7,000 stranded passengers were unexepectedly diverted to this remote community. Over five days, locals opened their homes, schools, and hearts to people from around the world, forging unlikely friendships and unforgettable acts of generosity.
With a driving Celtic folk score and a book that balances humour, heartbreak, and hope, Come From Away reminds audiences of the extraordinary compassion ordinary people can show in extraordinary times. It is a musical that leaves audiences laughing, crying, and ultimately believing in the goodness that connects us all.
Audience rating: PG13
