Winner of four Olivier Awards including Best New Musical in London and the Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical on Broadway, this smash hit show shares the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers who were grounded in Canada during the wake of 9/11, and the small Newfoundland community that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives with open hearts.
Experience this joyous story and soaring music as spirited locals and global passengers come together to forge friendships that will stay with them forever. The first female American Airlines captain, the quick-thinking town mayor, the mother of a New York firefighter and the eager local news reporter are among the many real characters whose stories became a true celebration of hope, humanity and unity.
Tony Award-winning director Christopher Ashley, Olivier Award-winning writers Irene Sankoff and David Hein, and a talented cast bring this uplifting true story to the stage in a life-affirming production that has audiences on their feet. Starring Natasha J Barnes (Funny Girl, Cinderella), Daniel Crowder (Gypsy, Mamma Mia!), Mark Dugdale (Les Misérables), Rosie Glossop (Kinky Boots), Amanda Henderson (Casualty), Kirsty Hoiles (Mamma Mia!), Oliver Jacobson (The Book Of Mormon), Dale Mathurin (Cinderella), Nicholas Pound (Cats), Sara Poyzer (Mamma Mia!), Bree Smith (Titanic The Musical) and Jamal Zulfiqar (Netflix’s One Day).
