On September 11, 2001, thirty-eight commercial airliners were suddenly forced to land in Gander, Newfoundland — a remote island community that instantly found its population doubled by stranded, anxious travelers from around the world. What followed was an extraordinary, true testament to human resilience and radical hospitality. Come From Awaymasterfully weaves the overlapping stories of these "come from aways" and the locals who opened their homes, hearts, and pantries without hesitation. Driven by a rhythmic, foot-stomping Celtic-infused score, this deeply moving musical reminds us that even in our darkest hours, our capacity for kindness, empathy, and unexpected connection remains unshakeable.
