About this event

The remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them.

What to Expect

  • 1.Plan to park in the Meadow Brook lot and head in early—doors open about 30 minutes before curtain, and the lot can fill up on a busy night.
  • 2.The theatre is a traditional proscenium setup, so seat location matters; if you have accessibility needs or prefer a clearer view, call the box office to pick seats with the best sightlines.
  • 3.Expect a roughly 2.5–3 hour evening with a short intermission in the middle—use the break to stretch, use restrooms, and grab a drink from lobby concessions.
  • 4.Concessions are in the lobby, so you can grab snacks or drinks before or after the show and during intermission; bring a bit of cash or have your card handy.
  • 5.Come From Away is an emotional, moving show—pack tissues, prepare for a mix of uplifting and heartfelt moments, and plan to discuss the performance with friends afterward.
