COME FROM AWAY tells the remarkable true story of the amazing people of Gander, Newfoundland. This small town and its people played host to the world when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander welcomed these strangers with open arms and sheltered, fed, and clothed them at a time of fear and uncertainty. An unbelievable act of love for their fellow humans that can teach us all a lesson about kindness and compassion. The show runs July 24-August 2 in the Center for the Arts Concert Hall. You don’t want to miss it!
