It's a mark of a great show that it seems to speak directly to the present moment, even if that moment is years after its original creation. Come From Away passes that test with flying colours; in its depiction of an international community dealing with a crisis – including, raising a wry audience laugh, stockpiling loo paper – this 9/11 musical has plenty of resonance with our coronavirus times. Except that the world would be a much better place if we all behaved a bit more like the people of Gander.

The Olivier Award-wining West End production of COME FROM AWAY celebrated its first birthday at Phoenix Theatre tonight (11 March), and officially welcomed to the Rock 10 new cast members.
