Come from away - 2025 musical - book your audition

Come From Away banner, 2025 musical of BPLTC

Come From Away -  tells the true story of when seven thousand people landed on the doorstep of Gander, Newfoundland… and the people of Gander “put the kettle on.”


When 38 planes from around the world were diverted to a small, Canadian community on September 11, 2001 the town's population doubled in an instant.


While the world witnessed the worst acts of humankind, the stranded passengers had their faith in humanity restored by the spirited people who comforted those who had come from away.


Auditions are being held on Saturday 23rd November and Sunday 24th November, 2024. The format of the auditions requires everyone to attend Saturday morning, 23rd November for group dance and singing sessions. You will also need to attend a booked individual audition for acting and singing.


Prior performance experience is not essential and we are looking for a diverse ensemble of strong storytellers and vocalists. We promote an inclusive environment, encouraging all to audition and welcomes performers from all ethnicities, beliefs, genders, representations, ages, and sizes to apply.
