The hit Broadway musical ‘Come from Away’ — with book, music and lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein — 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 the stranded travelers they housed and fed. At the 71st Tony Awards, the musical was nominated for seven awards and won Best Direction of a Musical for Christopher Ashley. At the 2019 Laurence Olivier Awards, it was nominated for nine awards and won three, including Best New Musical. Funny, heartfelt, uplifting, and deeply human, it’s a musical about kindness when it matters most. Join us on Friday, May 29 at 7pm at the Pagosa Springs Center for the Arts… and stay after the performance for a special talk-back with the cast and creative team as we celebrate the launch of the summer season together.
