This beautiful musical tells a true story that has become something of a legend: on Sept. 11, 2001, the residents of the isolated, small town of Gander, Newfoundland played host to the world when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to tiny Gander’s airstrip on a moment’s notice. In the week after 9/11, residents banded together to house, clothe, and feed nearly 7,000 stranded travelers, building lasting connections with them through empathy, music & an open bar. Come From Away has itself become a symbol of generosity and connection, and the show is known for offering one of the most heartwarming evenings available at a theatre.
