TheatreWorks Silicon Valley presents “Come From Away”

TheatreWorks Silicon Valley will stage the Broadway musical sensation “Come From Away”, helmed by TheatreWorks Founder/Artistic Director Emeritus Robert Kelley. Written by husband and wife duo David Hein and Irene Sankoff, “Come From Away” tells the remarkable true story of the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed 7,000 passengers from all over the world as flights were diverted during the aftermath of September 11, 2001. Featuring an infectious score, this heartwarming musical is a testament of the best aspects of human nature, as the citizens of tiny Gander, Newfoundland threw open their doors to stranded strangers and forged enduring friendships across cultural differences.
