Come From Away

Come From Away is back in Washington D.C. for a limited run, presenting its acclaimed musical story inspired by true events following 9/11. This production showcases the small Newfoundland community that welcomed 7,000 stranded airline passengers, focusing on themes of kindness and human connection during a global crisis. The show's folk-rock score and ensemble cast have made it a perennial favorite. This Thursday matinee performance on October 8, 2026, at Ford's Theatre offers a chance to see the touring production in a historic setting. It's a show that resonates with those who appreciate stories of resilience and community, and the intimate nature of Ford's Theatre often enhances the emotional impact of such narratives.
