Come From Away Will Play Sydney's State Theatre This Summer - Playbill.com

Come From Away, which tells the true story of 7,000 airline passengers stranded in Newfoundland in the wake of September 11, will open at the State Theatre in Sydney, Australia, August 8. The Australian premiere of the international hit musical began in July last year at Melbourne's Comedy Theatre, where it continues.

Rodney Rigby, who produces with Junkyard Dog Productions, said in a statement, “It’s been wonderful to see the huge success of Come From Away in Melbourne, and how Australian audiences continue to resonate with this enduring story of kindness and humanity. We are delighted to bring this special production to Sydney’s State Theatre in August.”

The Australian company marks the fifth staging of the musical worldwide, joining long-running productions on Broadway, in Toronto, the West End, and the U.S. national tour.
