RE-SCREECH IN!! Last night, the groundbreaking Award winning 9/11 musical Come From Away relaunched its inaugural Broadway production after being shutdown for the past 18 1/2 months. The sold out audience at the Gerald Schonefeld Theatre were non-stop on their feet as they became history making ISLANDERS.
Check out footage of those unforgettable moments from last night consisting of….
that first standing ovation back with a pre-show speech from the show’s director Tony winner Christopher Ashley along with its Tony nominated composing husband and wife duo Irene Sankoff, and David Hein.
the historical first curtain call back which included a powerful speech from cast member Joel Hatch (who plays “Claude” and others) and a selfie participation led by Sharon Wheatley (who plays “Diane” and others),
and
the company partying it up as the band plays the EXIT MUSIC….. SCREECH OUT which also included a ceremonious welcome to its newest cast member James Seol (who replaced Chad Kimball as “Kevin T” and others).
WELCOME BACK TO THE ROCK COME FROM AWAY!!!
How amazing was that?!!
