Activity
Our social takes us to the New Wimbledon Theatre. Come From Away, the touching musical celebrating the strength of human compassion is back to inspire audiences in the West End. Created by Canadian husband and wife team Irene Snakoff and David Hein, the rippling impact of 9/11 across the world is felt in a Newfoundland town, when no less than 38 transatlantic flights are ordered to land. Based on a true story, Come From Away follows the events of September 11th 2001 when, far away from New York, 38 transatlantic flights are grounded in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland. With US airspace closed, 7000 people emerge from the planes into a surreal scene, and despite almost doubling the town's population, are welcomed with open hearts, minds and arms.
