Open auditions taking place on Wednesday 16th July at 7pm.

Come From Away is a heart warming musical based on the extraordinary true story of what transpired when 38 planes were ordered to land unexpectedly in Gander, Newfoundland, on September 11, 2001. With the small towns population of 9000 swelling by nearly 7000 stranded airline passengers, the residents of Gander opened their hearts and homes, welcoming ‘plane people’ with warmth and kindness. The musical highlights themes of community, resilience, and compassion, showcasing the profound connections formed between the locals and the passengers during a time of crisis. As they navigate fear, uncertainty, and cultural differences, both groups discover the transformative power of empathy and human connection. With a dynamic score and uplifting storytelling, “Come From Away” celebrates the spirit of togetherness in the face of adversity, truly proving that love can prevail even in the darkest times.

“As we embark on this journey with “Come From Away,” my hope, along with that of our dedicated crew, is to assemble a well-rounded cast that can work as a team and embodies the spirit of collaboration. Together, we aim to create a truly special experience that resonates with everyone involved.

I want each member of the cast, crew, and audience to feel every moment of this powerful musical, leaving with a deeper sense of connection to one another and the world around us—just as I did when I first experienced it.” – Hannah (Director)
