Come From Away, 2019's Olivier Award Winning hit, is back with this specially crafted concert performance. Reuniting the cast and the fantastic band, you'll experience the show stripped down, but with all the warmth and heart audiences have come to love. With additional Covid safe regulations, Come From Away: The Concert gives us the chance to enjoy Irene Snakoff and David Hein's stunning musical safely and in a whole new way.
Based on a true story, Come From Away follows the events of September 11th, 2001, when, far away from New York, 38 transatlantic flights are grounded in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland. With the US airspace closed, 7000 people emerge from the planes into a surreal scene, and despite almost doubling the town's population, are welcomed with open hearts, minds and arms.
Although the horrors of that day are all too familiar, this is a story of hope told from the perspective of a handful of passengers and Gander residents, who wholeheartedly welcomed the stranded travellers into their homes - and into their lives. Among the characters are American Airlines' first female pilot, a gay couple both called Kevin, and an Egyptian chef, who fears a frosty reception from the community - only to be proved wrong entirely. Weaving together all of their storylines, the show creates an affirming portrait of human connection in the most trying of circumstances.

A stunning Triumph
We're reminded that despite our differences, kindness and understanding has the power to unite us all
As the events of 9/11 united us all in heartbreak and fear, so too does Come From Away, scraping away layers of that unforgettable day and showing us the little-known story of Gander, a small town in Newfoundland.
