Watch party this Sunday at Webster City Community Theatre

The watch party for "Come From Away" will be held on Sunday night at the Webster City Community Theatre, located at 1001 Willson Ave. in Webster City

"Come From Away" by Irene Sankoff and David Hein will close the 2026-2027 season on June 3-6 and 10-13, 2027. This Broadway musical tells the true story of 9/11 when 38 trans-Atlantic flights landed in Gander, Newfoundland. 7,000 passengers from across the world spent five days as the guests of the people on that small Canadian island.

The cast of twelve portrays over 40 characters: the folks of Gander and the “come from aways” on the planes. Director Loween Getter hopes audiences will recognize that, "It is the story of the best of humanity in the worst of times."

To get familiar with the script, WCCT will hold a watch party at the theatre on Sunday, July 19, at 3 p.m. Attendees who may be interested in auditioning, being part of the pit band, or are just curious, will watch the film of the Broadway cast performing "Come From Away" live.

The viewing will last approximately 90 minutes. Popcorn will be available. Please bring your own beverage.
