Feel-good masterpiece Come From Away plays at the Phoenix Theatre

Wauw what a performance. Great cast, great message about faith, trust in the human kind and hope... and those voices.The band was top!! incredible and a interpreter for the deaf the whole show. Night to remember with beautiful cast and crew and super Theatre staff members, thank you all from dutchies!

The first show in a very long time when I knew I would be leaping to my feet in a standing ovation at the end! A true ensemble piece commemorating and celebrating what happened at that time. Brilliant!

Just seen tonight’s showing and it was fantastic. The cast including the musicians were first class. So glad we got to travel to London to see this. Would love to see it travel the country so we can see it again. Thank you so much

By far one of the best pieces of theatre I've ever seen. The choreo, staging and music were sensational. What a great cast! If I hadn't had another show booked, I'd have gone back for the evening show too! Comfy and spacious seating too (Row H stalls)

We wtched the matinee show this afternoon, fantastic show , very cleverly done , would recommend it to anyone

‘Come From Away’ stands amongst one of those rare musicals that reminds you of the human condition: that kindness, companionship, and laughter can be found in the most unlikely of places and times. If you need a tear-jerker, if you need to be reminded that the world is just utterly grand, watch it. Live, and feel! 🙂

This was booked for my birthday. Its an amazing show, the best we've seen. Can't recommend it enough

An outstanding performance from srart to finish. A tearjerking adaptation of an historic tradgedy cleverly portrayed by exceptionally talented professionals. Awe inspiring and humorous throughout. .... A

Simply the best thing in the West End right now. Seen it twice already and planning our next visit already. A truly joyous and uplifting experience from start to finish.

Powerful new musical bringing a different perspective on the aftermath of 9/11. Outstanding afternoon’s entertainment

Far too loud - by far the loudest musical I’ve ever been too, my ears are still ringing and the words were frequently indecipherable in the ill balanced amplification. A pity, there’s a good performance in there if you’d just ease off. Better yet, in such a small theater, is it really necessary at all?

A heartwarming show that displays the best of humanity! Very impactful! Everyone in the world should see it!

It was the best musical I have ever seen. Loved it from Start to Finish.

Uplifting, poignant... wonderful throughout.. Highly recommend this...Cast members who came to stage door today so amazing ...spent loads of time with some audience members who had personal stories to tell, listened carefully and gave their story the full attention it deserves...so wonderful

What a brilliant show , amazing cast fabulous songs and a great story - highly recommend

This is truly one of the, if not the, best musical that I have seen. Emotional, entertaining and well told. I use my comment very sparingly, but this show was fantastic. I saw this show 3 weeks ago and still find myself thinking about it often and fondly. Book your ticket now you will not be disappointed.

Loved it so much from the very first moment! Energetic, touching & funny! Fabulous music! A very talented cast of actors!! One of the best plays I’ve ever seen!

saw more than 160 shows until today but this one was by far one of the best! it literally makes you laugh and cry

Fabulous!!! Very powerful performance....

Funny, moving, talent-laden, atmospheric, joyful, thought-provoking, Go!!!

The best show I have ever seen. An absolute ”must see” for anyone who loves great theatre. I really cannot rate this highly enough.

5 Star - absolutely brilliant - really can’t recommend it enough, heart warming, emotional, funny and so entertaining.

Wow !!! Richly deserved the instant standing ovation , cheers , whistles and applause. Such quality entertainment with a wonderful message .

Best thing I have ever seen. Funny, powerful and so very heartwarming too!

Went to this show with a friend today. My husband and I were actually two of the stranded passengers in Gander, flying on a Virgin flight. We stayed in Gander Academy in a floor in a classroom for four nights, and everything that we saw portrayed in the Show was true. The people of Gander welcomed us in an unbelievably generous manner. We will never forget their kindness to us 'plane people' in such a surreal situation.

Brilliant. High energy show with lots of songs. Moving story - everyone knows where they were on 9/11 when they heard about the attacks but I certainly hadn’t heard this story. Amazing cast who move so quickly and take on so many different roles you think there must be twice as many of them. I’m so pleased I’ve seen it. Definitely recommended.

Best thing I’ve seen for years and I go to the theatre every week! The script was brilliant and that’s before I realised it was a true story. The choreography was sharp - I laughed out loud and had a tear in my eye -the music and musicians were terrific and every one of the actors and actresses were just great. If you see one show see this one.

Saw this at the Phoenix theatre last week. Absolutely loved every second of this musical ! The soundtrack is so well done, I'm SOO obsessed with it! The true stories that have come together in this musical, are so heartwarming and you truly leave the theatre feeling inspired by life. An incredible performance, the show deserved every second of its immediate standing ovation! A 10/10, I would definitely see it again!

Absolutely amazing. Restores your faith in humanity.

100 minutes of pure outstanding theatre. You’ll laugh and you’ll cry. As someone who spends a lot of time in the theatre, I have never seen a show get an immediate standing ovation as soon as the curtain call begins, but every time I’ve seen this show that is exactly what happens. All the actors are incredible and you leave the theatre feeling really uplifted and the show definitely restores faith in humanity

A wonderful show with a terrific cast which certainly deserves more than five stars...Laughter tears and a reminder of a time we should never forget.

12 people, but at least 200 characters and emotions to sweep you through 100 minutes of pure stage magic *****

There should be more than a 5 star rating for this. It was fantastic. The audience roared its approval. I had been looking forward to it but it was loads and loads better than I had imagined. I LOVED IT. Hope to visit again before it closes. Three cheers to all involved including the real people to whom this all happened.

As one of the come from aways, from flight CO29, staying in Gambo with the fantastic Pritchett family, I was a little apprehensive that this could easily go awry. But it absolutely caught the complex atmosphere, and was utterly right on every front - writing, music, staging, acting. It may just persuade me to dig out my last little miniature of Screech and kiss a cod. Or see it again. And dig out the Screech.

Just got home from a truly amazing couple of hours, gripped from the first opening note to the last. Brilliant must see, so must see, I must see again. Cleverly done with a few chairs and tables... amazing

Brilliant in all respects - a must see

Absolutely amazing! We laughed, we cried, we danced, we loved it! Genuinely one of the best shows I have ever seen. The cast is amazing; I felt as though I was leaving friends when the show finished. The band was fantastic, as well. I am already hoping to see the show again!

One of the best pieces of theatre I have ever seen. I have been obsessed with the soundtrack from the first time I heard it, and this cast did not disappoint! It truly is an ensemble cast, and every single cast member is absolutely brilliant. The staging is simple but incredibly powerful and the message of the show is so moving. I will most certainly be coming again as soon as I can!

Absolutely brilliant, one of the very best theatrical experiences ever. Saw this Sat Feb 9 th matinee. At the end the whole audience rose as one to give a well deserved standing ovation. An outstanding cast of 12 playing a variety of characters in a simple setting was brilliantly executed with wonderful choreography. Heartwarming with humorous touches - just go, must be seen. I was completely drawn in to the story, loved it, loved it loved it. Plus the accompanying band and music were also outstanding.

A truly beautiful and moving piece of theatre. Five stars doesn't do this heart-warming story justice.

I am a 'Come From Away'. Canadian born but I joined the British Air Force and I was posted to Gander, Newfoundland from May 99-Dec 01 and I worked at the airport. My 'Screeching-In' certificate is signed by 2 of the characters in the musical (Claude Elliot and Derm Flynn). I loved the show and I can say the warmth and generosity portrayed is typical of Newfoundlanders and my 2.5 years living in their community will never leave me. They are a wonderful community. The musical portrays people at their best which is sometimes only visible in the worst of scenarios. Kicking tunes too!!!

Emotional insight into humanity using only 12 chairs! This sounds like a negative but the direction and choreography are outstanding. All cast members were excellent. Shout out to the violinist who's living her best life! You might need tissues....
