Nominated for 2 Tony Awards including Best Choreography for Twyla Tharp.

Come Fly Away, the new musical from visionary director/choreographer Twyla Tharp, follows four couples as they fall in and out of love during one song and dance filled evening at a crowded nightclub.

THEATER/VENUE INFORMATION:



Marquis Theatre
1535 Broadway
New York, NY 10036
