Come From Away @ Phoenix Theatre (until 07 Jan 2023)

An unforgettable, uplifting true story Welcome to the Rock! Discover a remarkable true story about kindness in a world turned upside down, in hit musical Come From Away at the Phoenix Theatre. Inspired by real events, Come From Away drops audiences off in Gander, a tiny Newfoundland town that found itself in the spotlight after 9/11. When 7,000 stranded airline passengers were diverted to the edge of Newfoundland - many scared and panicking - the Islanders welcomed them with open arms. The musicals brilliantly versatile cast includes Jenna Boyd, Alice Fearn, Kirsty Malpass, James Doherty, Mark Dugdale, Kate Graham, Alasdair Harvey, Jonathan Andrew Hume, Gemma Knight Jones, Harry Morrison, Sam Oladeinde and Emma Salvo. Songs from Irene Sankoff and David Hein include Me and the Sky, Somethings Missing and You Are Here. Popular the world over, the Come From Away London production won an incredible four Olivier Awards in its debut season, confirming its reputation as one of the best musicals in London of recent years. Join the Islanders for a heartwarming tribute to kindness with Come From Away tickets. With beautiful music and compelling stories, this show is a beacon of joy in the heart of London. Performance dates: 01 Dec 2022 - 07 Jan 2023
