come from away

7,000 Stranded Passengers. One Small Town. A Remarkable True Story.​

​

Winner of four Olivier Awards including Best New Musical in London and a Tony Awardon Broadway, this smash hit show now arrives in York in a brand new production which is set to share the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers from all over the world who were grounded in Canada during the wake of 9/11, and the small Newfoundland community that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives with open hearts. 

 

With an electrifying score and a cast of characters who will leave you cheering, “Come From Away” is more than just a musical—it’s a celebration of humanity, resilience, and the power of community. Step into a world where kindness conquers all, brought to life with invigorating music and stories that will make you laugh, cry, and believe in the goodness of people. 

 

Olivier Award-winning writers Irene Sankoff and David Hein and the acclaimed York Stage bring this uplifting true story to the stage in a life-affirming production that is set to have audiences on their feet night after night.
