Based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland, played host to the world. Come From Away tells the true story of what happened when 38 planes were unexpectedly grounded in Newfoundland on September 11, 2001. Nearly 7000 passengers were welcomed by a town of barely 10,000 who opened their homes, their schools, and their hearts. In the face of unthinkable tragedy, they showed the world what compassion looks like. Whether you’re revisiting this extraordinary musical or experiencing it for the first time, welcome to Come From Away! The show has garnered Tony, Olivier, and Drama Desk Awards and just closed its global tour in late 2025. WICA is proud to be one of the first non-union theatre houses to win the rights to create our own original production as part of the national 10-year celebration of the musical. The essence of Come From Away is a gathering – a community remembering together the shared experience of a decade past, celebrating, grieving, and singing to capture a moment in time.
