MPAC is proud to host the tour of Come From Away at the theatre beginning tonight! Chief Operating Officer Ed Kirchdoerffer recently conducted a Zoomcast interview with Morris Plains residents Susan Riccardelli and Maureen Murray, whose real-life experience in Gander on 9/11 is depicted in Come From Away.
Come From Away is a stirring and inspiring musical that takes you into the heart of the remarkable true story of the small town in Newfoundland that opened their homes to 7,000 stranded travelers on 9/11. During that fateful week, cultures clashed and nerves ran high—but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night and gratitude grew into enduring friendships. Newsweek cheers, “It takes you to a place you never want to leave!”
Very limited tickets remain for this weekend’s performances! Celebrate the best of humankind and the best in all of us at Come From Away – visit our show page to learn more!
