The international hit musical Come From Away is landing at Lowry, Salford next month for a 4-week festive run – part of its first ever UK tour.
Winner of Best New Musical awards across the globe, Come From Away shares the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers from all over the world who were grounded in Canada during the wake of 9/11, and the small Newfoundland community that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives.
Steve Cowton, Head of Theatres at Lowry, said: “We are thrilled to be presenting this brilliant feel-good musical this festive season. Come From Away has been a huge hit all over the World and we can’t wait to share it with our audiences.”
Experience the joyous story and soaring music as spirited locals and global passengers come together and forge friendships that will stay with them forever. The first female American Airlines captain, the quick-thinking town mayor, the mother of a New York firefighter and the eager local news reporter are among the many real characters caught at the start of the moment that changed the course of history, and whose stories became a true celebration of hope, humanity, and unity.
The international hit musical has celebrated record-breaking engagements in the West End, on Broadway, in Canada, throughout Australia, and on a 60-city North American Tour.
This critically acclaimed show is on its first ever UK & Ireland tour, direct from the West End where it celebrated over 1,000 performances and played to more than 850,000 people at the Phoenix Theatre.
