The Burnie Musical Society is proud to present the award-winning musical Come From Away at the Burnie Arts Theatre, with performances running from Thursday 16 October to Saturday 25 October.

Based on true events, Come From Away tells the inspiring story of how the small rural town of Gander, Newfoundland, welcomed over 7,000 stranded airline passengers in the wake of the September 11 attacks. It’s a heartfelt tale of kindness, connection, and humanity in the face of tragedy.

Gander’s strong community spirit resonates deeply with the North West Coast of Tasmania, making this production especially meaningful for local audiences. We are incredibly honoured to have been granted the rights to stage this extraordinary show. Directed by the talented Tash Turner, this local production features a passionate cast, live orchestra, and dedicated crew who bring this powerful story to life on stage. Don’t miss this unforgettable musical that has moved audiences around the world and now comes to Burnie with all the heart, humour, and hope that defines Come From Away.

The season includes evening performances and three matinees across two weekends.

Tickets are on sale now through the Burnie Arts website or box office: www.burniearts.net
