West Springfield, MA (3/20/26) – The fifth and final play of the Majestic Theater’s current season takes the stage April 16 through May 31 when the acclaimed musical Come From Away is presented. The Majestic Theater is located at 131 Elm Street in West Springfield, MA.
With book, music and lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein, Come From Away is a heartwarming and uplifting musical that tells the true story of 7,000 passengers who were stranded in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland, after the events of September 11, 2001. The musical highlights the generosity and warmth of the real-life townspeople who welcomed strangers into their homes and hearts. Come From Away has garnered critical acclaim, winning the Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical and a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album. Its themes of kindness and community remind us of the power of compassion in the face of adversity and the shared humanity that unites us all in times of crisis.
