Resumen del Editor

Come from Away: Welcome to the Rock - a fully illustrated companion volume to the hit Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, featuring the book and lyrics for the first time in print, backstage stories and the real history behind the show's events, character design sketches, and songs that ended up on the cutting room floor.

The Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Come from Away tells the remarkable true story of a small town that welcomed the world. On September 11, 2001, 38 planes and 6,579 passengers were forced to land in the provincial town of Gander, Newfoundland. The local residents opened their arms to the displaced visitors, offering food, shelter, and friendship. In the days that followed, cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night, and gratitude grew into enduring friendships.

Come From Away: Welcome to the Rock is the ultimate companion piece to Irene Sankoff and David Hein's smash-hit musical based on that extraordinary experience. Featuring the complete book and lyrics for the first time in print, a foreword by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and exclusive photos of the company and physical production, this essential companion also includes original interviews with passengers, Gander residents, and the actors who portray them. The narrative by theater historian Laurence Maslon details the events of that memorable and challenging week and also traces the musical's development from the 10-year reunion of residents and airline passengers in Gander, where the idea for the musical was born, to the global phenomenon it is today.

Come From Away: Welcome to the Rock gives an unprecedented look behind the curtain and demonstrates why the story has touched so many so deeply: because we come from everywhere, we all come from away.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great background story

I saw Come from Away in Orlando. Started crying 10 minutes in and never stopped. This was a great background for the production.

The development of the hit musical

Whether you have seen Come from Away or not, this is a phenomenal book. Kindness takes initiative and effort. It is that right there that Come from Away is about. Most of us never think about how long it takes to bring a musical to the stage- it's years of work. This was a very cool behind the scenes look at making the musical and the people the characters are based on. 5 stars. Read the book, listen to the book, go see the show. Kindness matters.

come from away ... odd title, inspiring story

I had no idea what this was when a friend told me about it and I am so glad that they suggested I listen to it. What an inspiration the folks of Newfoundland are I hope that in my lifetime I'm able to visit and thank them for renewing my faith in people.

Brings warmth to the heart

It reminds me of sitting through the performance, but with more behind the scenes details. Awesome job!
