MusicalFare Theatre will launch its residency at Shea’s 710 Theatre with the regional premiere of COME FROM AWAY, running October 23–November 9, 2025.
The acclaimed musical by Irene Sankoff and David Hein tells the inspiring true story of the 7,000 airline passengers stranded in Newfoundland on 9/11 and the small town that welcomed them with open arms.
Directed by Randall Kramer, with choreography by Michael Oliver-Walline and music direction by Theresa Quinn, this production marks MusicalFare’s inaugural presentation at Shea’s 710 Theatre.
About the Production

The cast includes Bobby Cooke, Steve Copps, Augustus Donaldson, Wendy Hall, John Kaczorowski, Austin Marshall, Bob Mazierski, Kayla McSorley, Michele Marie Roberts, Debbie Pappas Sham, Alexandria Watts, and Emily Yancey.
