Come From Away 

Fireside Theatre in Ft. Atkinson, WI

Cost: $155      Reserve your spot by 8/26

 

Nadine saw Come From Away on Broadway. It is Fabulous!!!

The exhilarating Tony Award-winning musical that was born out of the tragedy of September 11, 2001. In the remarkable true story of COME FROM AWAY, what started as an average morning in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland turned into an international sleepover, when 38 planes carrying 7,000 people from around the globe were diverted to their airstrip. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar, and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family. Experience this joyous story with a dynamic score and a vibrant, fast-paced narrative as both hosts and visitors form friendships that will stay with them forever.

Pick-Up/Departure: 

Libertyville 8:15 a.m.  / Wauconda 8:45 a.m.

“9 to 5” the Musical     

Drury Lane Theatre, Oak Brook

Thursday, January 28, 2027

Cost: $154      Reserve by 12/20/26​

Based on the hit 1980 movie, this hysterical and empowering musical is the story of three unlikely friends who concoct a plan to get even with their sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot of a boss.
