Come From Away has finished its run on Broadway.
The musical tells the story of the Town of Gander during 9/11 when planes were forced to land at the airport due to the closure of U.S. airspace.
The show debuted in 2017, garnering a number of Tony award nominations and other theatre awards, with over 1,600 performances under its belt.
The show is still showing in London and Australia, and is continuing its North American tour.

Needed to share this story: Some of you know that backstage, we had the flags for every Newfoundland town mentioned in the script (a few places even had to invent a flag to send us). Anyway, as we were closing, our entire company signed them to be sent back to the towns… 🧵 pic.twitter.com/0EgByAuOYr
