Theatre: Come from Away
Overview
Join a friendly group of Spicers to watch the latest production at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse - your host will meet you in the bar from 7.30pm.
Tonight we see Come from Away - 7,000 Stranded Passengers. One Small Town. A Remarkable True Story becomes a hit Musical!
This smash hit show shares the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers from all over the world who were grounded in Canada during the wake of 9/11, and the small Newfoundland community that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives with open hearts. Experience this joyous story and soaring music as spirited locals and global passengers come together to forge friendships that will stay with them forever. The first female American Airlines captain, the quick-thinking town mayor, the mother of a New York firefighter and the eager local news reporter are among the many real characters caught at the start of the moment that changed the course of history and whose stories became a true celebration of hope, humanity and unity.
Winner of four Olivier Awards including Best New Musical and the Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical on Broadway, now experience this new production at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse, 25 Years on from the events of 9/11.

By Public Transport: The Garrick is about 800m (a 10-minute stroll) from each of the following stations, served by both Northern trains and Manchester Metrolink trams: Altrincham Interchange and Navigation Road.
The Garrick is situated on Barrington Road, a major bus route and there are bus stops on both sides of the road very close to the theatre.
Parking at the Garrick: There is a reasonably-sized car park, which offers free parking including spaces reserved for disabled parking. The car park can quickly become full for the most popular performances – filling up sometimes half an hour before a show begins.
Alternatively, there are numerous opportunities for parking on residential side streets within a couple of minutes’ walking distance. Parking there can also sometimes be limited and again you are advised to come as early as possible if you want to park particularly close to the theatre.
Please park considerately, avoiding blocking any access for local residents – thank you.
The bar is normally open at least 45 minutes before each performance, so their advice is: arrive early, park early, and relax in the cosy bar before the show!
