Winner of 4 Olivier Awards, together with Best New Musical in London and the Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical on Broadway, Come From Away is a smash-hit feelgood present primarily based on an unbelievable true story.
In the rapid aftermath of 9/11, 1000’s of air passengers from everywhere in the world had been grounded in Canada and that is the story of the small Newfoundland neighborhood that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives with open hearts.
A joyous story with hovering music, Come From Away focuses on spirited locals and world passengers coming collectively to forge friendships that can stick with them without end. Featuring actual folks with actual lives – the primary feminine American Airlines captain, the quick-thinking city mayor, the mom of a New York firefighter, the keen native information reporter – these are the characters caught at first of the second that modified the course of historical past and whose tales grew to become a real celebration of hope, humanity and unity.
Starring Natasha J Barnes (Hex on the National Theatre, The Witches of Eastwick on the Sondheim Theatre) as Janice, a TV reporter in Newfoundland as 9/11 occurred, Daniel Crowder (Mamma Mia UK and International tour, The Mousetrap at St. Martin’s Theatre) as Nick, a Come-From-Away and British oil engineer and Sara Poyzer (Mamma Mia!
