Discover the remarkable true story of a small town that welcomed the world.

Mylo (Age 13) - ★★★★★

“The performance was entertaining and you were always watching intently. The story was meaningful and light-hearted. It told the true story of 38 planes filled with approximately 7000 passengers being diverted to a small town called Gander in Newfoundland due to 9/11. There was comedy shining through the sadness however. It was truly amazing and the story was fascinating. The music was fantastic and was constant throughout. You could feel the emotions given by the actors. The audience gave a standing ovation and it was well deserved."
