Musical - Come From Away

About this event

An uplifiting musical about open doors and open hearts.

On September 11, 2001, 38 planes were diverted to Gander Airport after U.S. airspace was indefinitely closed, stranding 7,000 international travelers in Newfoundland and immediately doubling the population of a tiny, isolated island town. The townspeople quickly respond with heroic hospitality, inviting the beleaguered travelers into their bars, their homes, and their hearts. Set to rousing, rowdy, and rough-hewn folk songs, Come From Away is the Tony Award-winning true story of human decency, a triumphant and inspiring tribute to an unforgettable moment in history, and a one-of-a-kind musical that proves “no man is an island, but an island makes a man.”
