STORY
Come From Away is based on the true story
of when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland played host to
the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned in to
an international sleep-over when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people
from across the globe, were diverted to Gander’s air strip on September
11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the
people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar
and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.
