Drum Roll Please . . . COME FROM AWAY Curtain Call is proud to be one of the first community theaters to perform this incredible piece of musical theater.
It’s inspired by an extraordinary true story.
It features a powerful contemporary musical-theatre score.
It is genuinely funny
It is deeply moving without being sentimental.
It tells a story about strangers becoming neighbors and ordinary people doing extraordinary things for one another.
It is a TRUE ENSEMBLE SHOW, filled with wonderful roles rather than just a few leads surrounded by a chorus.
It moves at an incredible pace, with actors transforming rapidly from one character to another.
And sometimes the simplest theatrical choices create the biggest moments.
Most importantly, this is a show about the goodness of people who show up for one another when the world suddenly changes.
We’re looking for adult performers of a variety of ages, types, backgrounds and experiences who are strong storytellers and comfortable singing, acting and moving as part of an ensemble.
You do not have to be a traditional “leading man” or “leading lady.” This is a show for character actors, singers, storytellers and performers who love creating something together.
