Preston Musical Comedy Society is thrilled to present Come From Away, a heartwarming and uplifting musical that celebrates the power of human kindness in the face of adversity. Based on the remarkable true story of Gander, Newfoundland, this Tony and Olivier Award-winning show takes audiences back to the days following September 11, 2001, when 38 planes carrying nearly 7,000 passengers were unexpectedly diverted to this small Canadian town. Overnight, the community opened its doors, offering shelter, food, and friendship to strangers from around the world—proving that even in the darkest times, compassion can bring people together.
With its toe-tapping folk-inspired score and a story brimming with humour, hope, and humanity, Come From Away has captured hearts across the globe, from Broadway to London’s West End and beyond. The musical has earned widespread acclaim, including the Olivier Award for Best New Musical and a Tony Award for Best Direction, making it one of the most beloved theatrical experiences of recent years.
Preston Musical Comedy Society brings this extraordinary tale to life with the same warmth and spirit that has made the show a worldwide phenomenon. Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Come From Away for the first time, this production promises to leave you moved, inspired, and humming its unforgettable tunes long after the curtain falls. Don’t miss your chance to experience this celebration of resilience, community, and the unexpected connections that change us forever.
