In July, Come From Away brings a powerful true story to the stage. Set in the days following September 11, 2001, the musical follows 7,000 stranded airline passengers and the small town of Gander, Newfoundland, whose extraordinary generosity turned strangers into family. With a driving folk-inspired score and a single ensemble portraying dozens of roles, this production celebrates connection, resilience, and the best of human spirit.
