In the days following September 11, 2001, 38 planes were diverted to the small town of Gander, Newfoundland—nearly doubling its population overnight. Come From Away tells the true story of strangers who became family through generosity, humor, and shared humanity. Fast-paced, ensemble-driven, and deeply moving.
Claude & others: The gregarious and well-liked Mayor of Gander, Newfoundland. Claude loves his work, the townspeople, and his daily traditions, but he's never had to deal with a crisis of this magnitude before. Doubles as Derm and Brenda’s Brother, Eddie. Gender: Male. Age: 40 to 60. Vocal range (top): G4.
Bonnie & others: A no-nonsense mother of three, Bonnie is the head of the Gander area SPCA. When she discovers animals are trapped on the planes, she stops at nothing to ensure their safety—but in frustration, she often lashes out at those around her. Doubles as Martha. Gender: Female. Age: 30 to 40. Vocal range (top): B4.

Diane & others: A traditional divorcee from Texas, who is terrified that her son may have been flying at the time of the attacks. When she finds out that he's safe, she's given a new lease on life and discovers a wilder, more carefree side of herself. Doubles as Crystal and Brenda. Gender: Female. Age: 50 to 60. Vocal range (top): C#5. Vocal range (bottom): A3.

Bob & others: A hardened New Yorker, Bob is suspicious of where he's landed, fearing that it's World War III—that someone is going to shoot him and steal his wallet—but instead, he ends up losing his New York jadedness. Doubles as Muhumuza and Captain Bristol. Gender: Male. Age: 20 to 40.
Hannah & others: The mother of a firefighter in Manhattan. Hannah waits for news about her son and is comforted by Beulah. Doubles as Margie and Mickey. Gender: Female. Age: 40 to 60. Vocal range (top): E5.
