One of the best musicals!
Cadillac Palace - Chicago
It was fantastic! Very engaging. I laughed and cried through the whole show. They put a great spin on a very scary and awful situation. Was so surprised when it was over, never checked my watch during the show.

wonderful!
Cadillac Palace - Chicago
Wonderful show! Everyone enjoyed it - even my adults kids who weren't too sure going in. It brings back memories of how we survived a difficult time (9/11) and the importance of coming together as a community. Humorous, beautiful music, left feeling good.

I loved it. My husband did not.
Cadillac Palace - Chicago
The story, the characters, and the relationships were moving. We learned a lot about that situation, and we empathized with the characters' experiences. I thought the actors did a terrific job of playing multiple characters. The sets were rather minimal, suggesting rather than showing the different settings -- a school, a bar, a party -- and this minimalism allowed the actors to shine. As we left, I said this might have been the best musical I'd seen. My husband disagreed, saying that the music was somewhat uninspiring (it's true, there were no memorable numbers), the singers were all good but none were great, and the choreography was limited. I couldn't argue with any of that. I was still moved by the emotional experience, but I have to admit that it didn't reach the artistic standards you might expect in a Broadway musical.

She worked tirelessly to help us switch dates and also upgrade our seats! Bravo!!! Thank you Claire for going above and beyond! You made our day!! Thank you…

Entertaining, Poignant and Educational
Cadillac Palace - Chicago
Come From Away was a terrific show! It told a very important story about 9/11. The cast is very talented! The show is a quick show. Less than 2 hours and there’s no intermission. Highly recommend.

A Feel Good Experience
Cadillac Palace - Chicago
This is the second time I've seen this production. It's a wonderful story about a town that took a disaster and proved that the human spirit overcomes the worst of times. The humor is natural, the music heartfelt. And it's the only show I've ever been to that ended with a spontaneous standing ovation and everyone staying and clapping along with the band. This is a show everyine needs to see.

Amazing!
Cadillac Palace - Chicago
The show was absolutely amazing!! We arrived at the theatre and the entrance was well organized so we didn't have to wait in the cold very long. We were directed to our seat and we were very pleased with the location.

This show was amazing!!! Heartbreaking, yet having humor, sadness but with hope. I love the story telling of each passenger and also how the characters were able to switch roles and accents. Fantastic show. A must see!!!
Come From Away on Tour
The true story of the small town that welcomed the world.
Broadway's COME FROM AWAY has won Best Musical all across North America!
The New York Times Critics' Pick takes you into the heart of the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them. Cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night, and gratitude grew into enduring friendships.
Don't miss this breathtaking new musical written by Tony® nominees Irene Sankoff and David Hein, and helmed by this year's Tony-winning Best Director, Christopher Ashley. Newsweek cheers, "It takes you to a place you never want to leave!"
On 9/11, the world stopped. On 9/12, their stories moved us all.
