Come From Away

Chelmsford Amateur Operatic & Dramatic Society proudly present their production of Come From Away.

Experience the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small town that welcomed them with open arms.

When 38 planes are unexpectedly grounded in the wake of 9/11, the tight-knit community of Gander, Newfoundland finds itself host to the world. Strangers become friends, cultures collide, and simple acts of kindness grow into extraordinary connections.

This production is presented by CAODS. Filled with soaring music, heartfelt storytelling and moments of genuine humour, Come From Away is a life-affirming musical that celebrates compassion, resilience and the power of human connection.
