Come From Away

On September 11, 2001, the world stopped. On September 12, their stories moved us all.

The award-winning Sainsbury Singers return to South Hill Park with the smash-hit musical sensation, Come From Away. When 38 diverted planes carrying 7,000 passengers were unexpectedly grounded in the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland, the townsfolk opened their hearts, homes, and lives to stranded strangers.

In this joyous and life-affirming musical, uneasiness quickly turns into trust, and profound gratitude grows into enduring friendships. Featuring a spectacular, foot-stomping folk-rock score and a brilliant ensemble cast of characters based on real people, this deeply moving production serves as a timeless reminder of our capacity for kindness.

Heartwarming, comedic, and emotionally triumphant, Come From Away is a celebration of the human spirit that guarantees you will leave the theatre with a full heart.
