This musical should not exist. Born of unspeakable tragedy, it delivered tremendous hope and healing to a world desperately in need of it. Come From Away is the true story of 38 passenger planes carrying 7,000 people, all planning to be anywhere in the world other than Gander, Newfoundland on September 11, 2001.
During the FAA airspace shutdown, Gander’s 10,000 residents proved that human kindness knows no bounds as they fed, housed, and comforted their unexpected guests for 5 days on the rocky island of Newfoundland. Their homes, kitchens, churches, restaurants, and bars were flung open, greeting them with, “Welcome to the Rock” for those who come from away. Nominated for numerous Tony and Grammy Awards among others, it contains mature themes of fear and death and some adult language. Recommended acceptable for ages 13+.
COME FROM AWAY is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com
