Award Winning Come From Away at Theatre Royal

7,000 Stranded Passengers. One Small Town. A Remarkable True Story. Award winning Come From Away shares the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers from all over the world 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 caught at the start of the moment that changed the course of history and whose stories became a true celebration of hope, humanity and unity.

The cast will include Natasha J Barnes as Janice & others, Daniel Crowder as Nick, Doug & others, Mark Dugdale as Kevin T, Garth & others, Rosie Glossop as Bonnie & others, Amanda Henderson as Beulah & others, Kirsty Hoiles as Diane & others, Oliver Jacobson as Oz & others, Dale Mathurin as Bob & others, Nicholas Pound as Claude & others, Sara Poyzer as Beverley, Annette & others, Bree Smith as Hannah & others, Jamal Zulfiqar as Kevin J, Ali & others, with Angeline Bell, Daniel Cane, Ashleigh Harvey, Alyn Hawke, Kathryn Pemberton and Kevin Yates.

Tony Award-winning director Christopher Ashley alongside Olivier Award-winning writers Irene Sankoff and David Hein bring this uplifting true story to the stage in a life-affirming production that has audiences on their feet night after night.

“The best new musical since Hamilton… Funny, fast and irresistibly open-hearted without being sappy,” The Times.
