Come From Away
Book, Music and Lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein
July 19 – August 2, 2026
Come from Away is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar, and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.
15 PERFORMANCES. 10+, LANGUAGE, BRIEF ADULT MOMENTS, AND MATURE TOPICS, INCLUDING DISCUSSION OF EVENTS SURROUNDING 9/11. MUSICAL.
