Great show - fast-paced, funny and poignant.
Newfie accents were a bit variable (I speak as the daughter of a Newfoundlander).

What a way to remind us that there are still people and places that restore your faith in the goodness of people, the power of a community working together. Every single character was strong and the music took the play to new heights everyone should go and see this brilliant play The whole audience jumped up to applaud at the end Brilliant

I loved this show. I was not sure when I first read about it due to the situation it is based upon but it is fantastic. Every one of the actors are wonderful - and the musicians. What a heartwarming story - it has renewed my faith in the human race.

From the opening number to the last, it was a joy to listen to and watch. You want to laugh and cry at the same time as well get up and dance. Really enjoyed the set, staging and choreography. There were a number of poignant stories and multiple characters. A town called Gander showed the world that even during such awful attrocities, the good of human nature will always win through.

Was a bit skeptical on how the story would transfer to a musical.
But was fantastic production. I got quite emotional at certain points

Superb musical
6 March 2019
This was brilliant from start to end. The singing and the musicians were excellent.
The staging was simple but effective and the use of the revolving stage was great.
There was a perfect mix of truth and sadness and humour. It did not have an interval but an interval would have spoiled the flow. It was amazing

This show was recommended by a friend - to be honest I'd never heard of it. I loved the ensemble playing and it was an unusual way of telling the story of what happened in Gander. The musicianship of the cast and the band was outstanding and the actors/singers told the story with such energy. We heard from the woman airline pilot, the couple who fell in love, the Muslim who was feared and many others. Each Actor took the role of at least 2 characters. The set was simple but it packed just as hard a punch as the big musicals. There was singing, dancing, humour and pathos. At the end the audience rose as one to give a thoroughly well deserved standing ovation.

As a ‘plane person’ myself I was very keen to see the musical. I was not disappointed, it captured the atmosphere of that dreadful day, how we felt finding ourselves in Gander (we were flying to Washington from London) and the warm welcome we received from the people of Gander. I will go again to see the show and will take my family. Well done to all concerned

A musical and human experience
14 February 2019
I had seen Come from Away in New York. It made me really want to see how it again to see how London got on? It was different, naturally, but the show itself is fabulous! Fast moving, complicated. Wonderful Irish music, heart breaking stories at times ( of course) There was an absolute and instinctive standing ovation on the last note. We all cried, clearly, but it is just SO good. Thanks guys for your total and absolute commitment. We loved it.

Moving, exciting, emotional. A wonderful show all round
13 February 2019
This is more than simply a musical, dealing as it does with the outfall from the terrible events of 9/11. It’s a brilliant and moving depiction of the effect on ‘normal’ people’s lives when 7000 airline passengers are stranded in a town of just 9000 people. The interactions of the ‘townies’ with passengers, the stresses that arise, the relationships built, are all brilliantly summarised by the superb cast and the script. Having almost the entire narrative set to music, and performed at breakneck speed adds to the urgency and enjoyment. The audience response at the end of the show, a long lasting standing ovation was well deserved. It’s brilliant.

12 February 2019
Absolutely fabulous, such a diverse talented cast. Did my heart good to see actors of different shapes, sizes and ages completely 'own' the stage
The music and dancing was toe tapping and made you want to jump to your feet and join in (which we did at the end, and my friend and I are both 70!!!). A lovely true story beautifully told.

90 minutes of pure fun
6 February 2019
When my Canadian friend excitedly told me about a new musical coming to London that I must go watch, I was a little sceptical at first, especially when she explained the basic premise of the show. But boy was I wrong to be skeptical! What I got instead was 90 minutes of pure joy, which left me laughing out loud, rooting for relationships to blossom, grinning at the display of goodness humanity has to offer in times of tragedy, and fighting an overwhelming urge to get up and dance. The whole show is fast paced, I was saddened that 90 minutes seemed to fly by. The cast is exceptional, not one weak link in the entire team. It was all simply brilliant.
I would like to extend my friends kindness, who recommend that i go see this, and recommend everyone else to go see it! You won't be disappointed!
