Come From Away

Come From Away is a musical that tells the true story of 7,000 airline passengers stranded in Gander, Newfoundland, after 9/11, and the small town that welcomed them. It is a heartfelt and often funny look at human kindness and community spirit in unexpected circumstances, presented as a single-act ensemble piece. The show has been praised for its unique storytelling and powerful message. This matinee performance on Saturday, May 15, 2027, is a chance to see the acclaimed production at the Sorensen Legacy Jewel Box Stage in Sandy, UT. The intimate setting of a jewel box stage often provides a close-up experience with the performers, which should suit this character-driven musical. It’s a good fit for anyone who appreciates uplifting stories based on real events, or theater that explores themes of compassion and resilience.
