“IT TAKES YOU TO A PLACE YOU NEVER WANT TO LEAVE!”—Newsweek This New York Times Critics’ Pick takes you into the heart of the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them. Cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night, and gratitude grew into enduring friendships. Don’t miss this breathtaking musical written by Tony® nominees Irene Sankoff and David Hein, directed by Tony®-winning Best Director, Christopher Ashley and musical staging by Tony®-nominee Kelly Devine. The tour is directed by Daniel Goldstein with musical staging by Richard J. Hinds, based on the original Broadway direction and choreography. On 9/11, the world stopped. On 9/12, their stories moved us all.
