Item Description

See COME FROM AWAY on Broadway with two tickets to a performance of your choice and the exclusive opportunity to have lunch with the Producer, Sue Frost.  

Two Tickets to COME FROM AWAY

COME FROM AWAY is the breathtaking new musical that played record-breaking engagements in La Jolla, Seattle, and Washington D.C. Written by Canadians Irene Sankoff and David Hein, the stunning production from Tony-nominated director Christopher Ashley (Memphis) has been hailed by the Los Angeles Times as “an affecting and stirring new musical.”

COME FROM AWAY tells the story of the 6,579 passengers that were stranded in the remote town of Newfoundland after the U.S. closed its airspace on 9/11. In this heartwarming tale, we observe a group of strangers come together and form an unexpected camaraderie in the most extraordinary of circumstances.

On September 11, 2001, the world stopped. On September 12, their stories moved us all.

This includes two tickets to a performance of your choice to COME FROM AWAY.
