Come From Away is a critically acclaimed musical featuring a culturally relevant script accompanied by a deeply moving score by Irene Sankoff and David Hein. The show has earned global success with 37 award nominations, 13 of which resulted in wins, most notably Best New Musical at the 2019 Olivier Awards and Outstanding Musical at the 2017 Drama Desk Awards. The show’s global presence resonates across all audiences as an uplifting reminder of humanity’s ability to come together, no matter what the circumstances.
Come From Away is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover, when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.

Saturday, December 5 ............. 6:00 PM
A holiday dinner theatre experience:
In a small cabaret in German-occupied France right before Christmas, someone will end up murdered. WHO DID IT? One man dares to crack the case—Nick Fearlessness. Nick doesn’t know the meaning of the word “fear.” He doesn’t know the meaning of the word “quit.” Nor does he know the meaning of hundreds of other commonly used words. But in a time when the world needs heroes, he may just be the only hope we have.
