Come From Away
Book, music & lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Heinook
AUGUST 26 – NOVEMBER 1 ON GILLIAM STAGE
When the world stopped on Sept. 11, 2001, kindness soared in an isolated Canadian town. In Come From Away, a big-hearted musical based on a remarkable true story, 38 commercial flights from around the globe are diverted for days to tiny Gander, Newfoundland. Unfazed by the arrival of nearly 7,000 surprise guests, the residents provide light in a dark time, welcoming the stranded travelers with music, open doors, and hope.
