COME FROM AWAY

August 21-September 20, 2026

RMT DEBUT! This Tony-winning musical is based on a true story about the day the tiny town of Gander, Newfoundland, played host to the world. On September 11, 2001, thirty-eight planes were diverted to the airstrip, bringing thousands of scared international travelers to the sleepy town. But with music, an open bar, and a few language barriers, it becomes a moment for global unity in an uncertain time.
