Come From Away

“You are here, at the start of a moment”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 travellers with music, an open bar and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.“Welcome to the Rock!”This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International.
