As travelers from around the globe found themselves stranded and anxious about loved ones and unfolding events, the residents of Gander responded with remarkable hospitality—opening their homes, schools, churches, and community centers to complete strangers.Through an uplifting score inspired by Celtic and folk traditions, Come From Away brings to life the humor, heart, and humanity that emerged during a moment of profound tragedy.
