Come From Away

Book, Music & Lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein
Directed by Sarah Kieffner
Produced by Leslie Berra

Come From Away at Pull-Tight Players

Performance dates: Aug. 7-22

This musical is based on the true story of the 7,000 airline passengers stranded in Gander, Newfoundland, after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. The Tony & Olivier Award winning show celebrates the extraordinary kindness of the small town’s residents who opened their homes and hearts to the “come from aways,” creating unexpected friendships and a powerful story of human connection and resilience.

Our season sponsor is True Friend Veterinary Care. See our other donors and sponsors.
