From Gander to Oakville, where it all began. Come From Away had its very first performance in Oakville, and now, this remarkable story returns home. When 38 planes are unexpectedly grounded in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland on September 11, 2001, 7,000 stranded passengers from around the world are welcomed by the locals with open arms. What begins as an international crisis becomes an unforgettable story of compassion, resilience, and hope. Filled with heart, humor, and an incredible Celtic inspired score, this award-winning musical celebrates the best of humanity and reminds us how even in the darkest moments, we can find light in each other.
