Above, check out cast members Emily Walton, De鈥橪on Grant, Petrina Bromley, Tony LePage, Tony nominee Jenn Colella, along with the show鈥檚 creators and writers, David Hein and Irene Sankoff, director Christopher Ashley, choreographer Kelly Devine, and music supervisor Ian Eisendrath, as they spill secrets from behind-the-scenes of the musical.

Come From Away tells the true story of 7,000 stranded air passengers during the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks, and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them. The performers all play multiple roles, switching between the locals and travelers as they band together in the face of a nearly impossible situation.
A free, in-person concert staging is also set for September 10. The event is open to all, with first-come, first-serve seating. As previously announced, the musical will return to Broadway September 21 following a West End reopening in July. The Toronto production performances December 7.
Originally co-produced in 2015 by La Jolla Playhouse and Seattle Repertory Theatre, the show made its way to a Broadway premiere in 2017. The production features scenic design by Beowulf Boritt, costume design by Toni-Leslie James, lighting design by Howell Binkley, sound design by Gareth Owen, orchestrations by August Eriksmoen, and casting by Rachel Hoffman of Telsey & Company.
Sankoff and Hein serve as executive producers of the film alongside RadicalMedia鈥檚 Jon Kamen, Dave Sirulnick, and Meredith Bennett.
