Come from Away is a musical, with book, music and lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein. It is based on the events in the Newfoundland town of Gander during the week following the September 11 attacks, when 38 planes, carrying approximately 7,000 passengers, were ordered to land unexpectedly at Gander International Airport. The characters in the musical are based on actual Gander residents and stranded travelers they housed and fed.

Contents

After a successful pre-Broadway run, it opened on Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre on March 12, 2017, and became a critical and box office success. A live recording of the production was released on September 10, 2021, on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the attacks. The Broadway production closed on October 2, 2022, after playing 25 previews and 1,669 regular performances. It has had successful runs in several countries, including playing 1,048 performances on the West End in London.

At the 71st Tony Awards in 2017, the musical was nominated for seven awards, including Best Musical, Best Original Score, Best Book of a Musical and Best Featured Actress in a Musical for Jenn Colella, winning for Best Direction of a Musical for Christopher Ashley.

Inception and development

The show was conceived by Michael Rubinoff, a Toronto lawyer, theatre producer, and associate dean of visual and performing arts at Sheridan College in Oakville. After being turned down by several writers, he reached out to husband and wife team Irene Sankoff and David Hein after seeing their 2009 show My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding. Sankoff and Hein, who had been living in New York during the September 11 attacks, did not find the concept bizarre, and felt that the idea of telling a Canadian story was inspiring. [1]

In 2011, Sankoff and Hein visited Gander on the tenth anniversary of the attacks and spent almost a month interviewing people. Rubinoff used their initial script to produce a 45-minute workshop version for the Canadian Music Theatre Project in 2012. [2] It was the first show developed there. [1] The workshop was sufficiently successful that Rubinoff asked Sankoff and Hein to finish writing it for a full production at Sheridan in 2013. The full production, directed by Brian Hill, was an artistic success, but Rubinoff was unable to attract a Canadian producer for further development. [2] [3]

In 2013, Goodspeed Musicals included Come From Away in their workshop program, [1] and the National Alliance for Musical Theatre in New York selected it as a showcase presentation, where its performance led to the show being optioned by Junkyard Dog Productions, the production company behind Memphis . [2]

Come from Away is a 100 minute one act musical. [4] Every event in the show is based on a real event, but they gathered more stories than could be included. [2] The characters are "a tribute" to the real people portrayed, but "not necessarily them". [5]

Synopsis

On the morning of September 11, 2001, the townspeople of Gander describe life in Newfoundland and how they learn of the September 11 attacks on the radio ("Welcome to the Rock"). Claude, the mayor of Gander, is informed of the attacks by Janice, a new reporter in town, while at a local Tim Hortons. The town receives the news that the US airspace has been closed, causing US-bound flights to be diverted across Canada, including 38 to Gander International Airport ("38 Planes"). This nearly doubles the population of Gander, and the townspeople make preparations to care for the 7,000 stranded passengers. Beulah and Annette, two schoolteachers, prepare the local school to take in passengers, while Janice asks for the community to provide resources ("Blankets and Bedding").

For hours, the plane passengers are forbidden from leaving the planes, and are without information about the attacks. They express frustration and fear at being stranded. A Gander SPCA worker, Bonnie, goes into the plane holds to search for animals on the planes, and Claude reaches an agreement with Garth, a union leader, to pause the bus drivers' strike and transport passengers ("28 Hours/Wherever We Are"). The passengers are eventually transported to Gander and surrounding towns for shelter ("Darkness and Trees"). A Muslim passenger, Ali, is temporarily detained. The local bus drivers take passengers to the towns and explain the culture of Newfoundland while navigating language barriers with international passengers ("On the Bus"/"Darkness and Trees (reprise)"). The passengers learn why they were grounded and watch replays of the attacks on television ("Lead Us Out of the Night"). They attempt to contact their families ("Phoning Home") and experience disorientation and stress at their situation ("Costume Party").

The town tries to manage food, sanitation, and other necessities for the guests. Some of the passengers try to get home, but are informed by Oz, the constable of Gander, that travel to the US takes several days. Nick, a British passenger, and Diane, a Texan, go for a walk with a gay couple from Los Angeles, both named Kevin. Bonnie and her husband Doug discover two bonobo chimpanzees in the hold of a plane. An American, Bob, is asked to take grills from backyards to set up for a community cookout; he fears he will be shot for stealing, but he finds everyone is friendly and willing to help. Hannah, the mother of a New York firefighter, bonds with Beulah and worries about her son ("I am Here"). Many of the passengers go to a local Catholic church or other spaces around town to pray ("Prayer"). Ethnic and national tensions erupt among the passengers and townsfolk ("On the Edge"). To alleviate this, the passengers are invited to a local bar and some are initiated as honorary Newfoundlanders ("Heave Away"/"Screech In"). One pilot who has been diverted, Beverley, reflects on her experience as the first female captain for American Airlines ("Me and the Sky").

The planes prepare to leave, and Ali is subjected to a strip search prior to leaving on suspicion he may be a terrorist. When flights are delayed, Nick and Diane go for a walk around the town and realize they will miss each other when they leave Gander ("The Dover Fault"/"Stop the World"). When the planes are cleared for takeoff, the passengers express happiness at returning to the US, and set up a donation fund for the people of Gander ("38 Planes" (reprise)"/"Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere"). After the events of the last five days, both the townspeople and passengers experience loneliness and fear about the state of the world; Kevin and Kevin's relationship has fallen apart due to the stress of the crisis, and Hannah is devastated to learn her son has died ("Something's Missing").

Ten years after the attacks, the townspeople and the passengers reunite in Gander (including Diane and Nick, who have since married) and celebrate the relationships formed while the passengers were stranded ("Ten Years Later"/"Finale").

[26] Examiner.com reported that Come From Away "set an all-time record for single ticket sales in a 24-hour period at Seattle Rep" as of December 1, 2015, [27] and the managing director of Seattle Rep said it was "now officially the highest grossing work that the theatre has ever done in its 53-year history". [28] It was extended by a week and closed December 20, 2015. [29]

Come from Away began performances at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C., on September 2, 2016. [30] It was set to close on October 9, 2015, but was extended through October 16. [31] The production was nominated for 14 Helen Hayes Awards and won 4, including Outstanding Production. [32] [33] Later in October, the cast played two concert performances in Gander at the Steele Community Centre. [5] It played a final pre-Broadway engagement at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto, beginning performances on November 15, 2016. [34] The show's entire run sold out during the second week of performances, and the venue added 16 extra seats and one extra performance to try to meet the demand. [35] The musical also set a ticket sales record for the theatre, selling $1.7 million in tickets in a single week. The show closed in Toronto on January 8, 2017. [36]

Original Canadian production (2018–2021)

Following the success of the pre-Broadway engagement, Mirvish Productions announced they would be opening a Canadian production of Come from Away that would include an all-Canadian cast.

[50] The entire four-week run sold out before performances began. [51] Following this, the production began performances at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto on February 13, 2018. [52] It recouped its full capitalization in 14 weeks. [53] The show ended its run at the Royal Alexandra Theatre on January 20, 2019. [54] This allowed the production to move to the nearby Elgin Theatre, since Mirvish was staging Dear Evan Hansen at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in March 2019. [55]

Reception

Critical reception

Broadway

After receiving generally positive reviews during its out of town tryouts, [111] [112] Come from Away opened on Broadway to mostly positive reviews. Ben Brantley of The New York Times wrote that the show's portrayal of it subject "covers a vast expanse of sensitive material with a respect for its complexity". [113] Robert Kahn of NBC New York called it "dignified". [114] Joe Westerfield of Newsweek said that the use of the frequent humor in the show is "handled very smartly". [115]

Reception of the characters was mixed. Jesse Green of New York criticized the rate at which the actors changed character, [116] and Marilyn Stasio of Variety said "the characters have no character". [117] The performances were well-received, with Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter saying, "all the performers are first-rate, and the fact that they actually look like real people rather than glamorous, Pilates-toned Broadway regulars makes them even more endearing". [118]

Ashley's direction was praised by critics. Peter Marks of the Washington Post said Come from Away was "some of the most impressive work of his career" [119] and Matt Windman of AMNY called his direction "precise". [120] The score received mixed reactions from critics. Allison Adato of Entertainment Weekly said "the music is confident and lively, and the direct, if not necessarily poetic, lyrics keep the character-based story moving at a pleasant clip", [121] while Joe Dziemianowicz of New York Daily News said "the music suffers from sameness and a sound mix that obscures lyrics". [122]

West End

Come from Away received mixed reviews on the West End. Dominic Maxwell of The Times called it a musical that "gets everything right", complimenting the score and cast. [123] Paul Taylor of The Independent criticized the lack of conflict and called it "determinedly inspirational". [124] Michael Billington of The Guardian gave it 3 stars out of 5, saying "[t]he show could hardly be better done even if, as a work of art, I found it lacking in complexity and argument". [125] Reviewing the show when it reopened in 2021, Dominic Cavendish of The Daily Telegraph said the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic brought increased relevance to the story. [126]

Later critique

In 2023, Sobia Shaheen Shaikh and Jennifer A. Selby criticized Come from Away of playing a part in protecting Newfoundland from accusations of Islamophobia after 9/11. In the show, the town of Gander is "exceptionally friendly" in nature, which they call a "narrative [that] has done work to shield critique of Islamophobia and other forms of racism in [Newfoundland]". [127]

Recordings

An original Broadway cast recording was released digitally on March 10, 2017, and physically on March 24, 2017. [128] It peaked at number 92 on the Top Current Albums chart and number two on the Cast Albums chart. [129] [130] The album was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album at the 60th Grammy Awards. [131]

On September 17, 2021, as part of a series of events for the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Covers from Away was released by Craft Recordings. [132] The album featured songs from the show covered by artists from Newfoundland and Labrador, including Alan Doyle, The Once, The Irish Descendants, and The Dardanelles. [133]

A Spanish-language cast recording of the Argentine cast was released on June 19, 2025. [134] [135]

Adaptations

Cancelled theatrical feature film

In November 2017, it was announced that The Mark Gordon Company would produce a feature film adaptation of the musical, with Sankoff and Hein writing the screenplay and Christopher Ashley as director. [144] In April 2019, Sankoff and Hein stated that the intention was to shoot in Gander and cast lesser-known actors, with Gander residents as extras. [145] The adaptation was placed on hold indefinitely in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [146]

Filmed stage production

In February 2021, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the performing arts, it was announced Entertainment One and RadicalMedia would film Come from Away live on stage, employing over 200 actors and workers. A May 2021 staging at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theater with Ashley directing and Gordon as producer was filmed in front of an audience that included frontline workers and 9/11 survivors, featuring members of the Broadway cast. [147] [148]

The production team included Jennifer Todd, Bill Condon and one of the stage production's producers, Junkyard Dog Productions. Sankoff, Hein, Jon Kamen, Dave Sirulnick and Meredith Bennett executive produced. [147] [149] In April 2021, Apple TV+ acquired the film's distribution rights. [150] It was released on September 10, 2021, one day before the 20th anniversary of 9/11. [151]
