A joyous musical inspired by tragic circumstances, Come From Away lands at the Citizens Bank Opera House November 5–17 for its Boston debut. Telling the fact-based story of a large contingent of international air travelers forced to land in Newfoundland following the devastating terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Come From Away has won wide acclaim since its 2013 debut in Canada, garnering seven 2017 Tony Award nominations for its still-running Broadway production.
