At the Curve’s Season Preview event on 6 February, as well as its previously reported festive production of Evita, it was revealed that multi award-winning musical Come From Away will open its UK and Ireland tour in a Curve co-production at the theatre from 1-9 March 2024.

Winner of Best New Musical across the globe, Come From Away shares the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers from all over the world who were grounded in Canada during the wake of 9/11, and the small Newfoundland community that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives. 

Curve also shared details of its annual co-production with De Montfort University, which gives performing arts students the opportunity to work with professional teams at the theatre. From 18-20 May, students will perform Jim Cartwright’s Road. Originally staged at London’s Royal Court Theatre in 1986, the drama gives voice to community members living on a street in northern England in the 1980s.

Tickets for Come From Away and Road are on sale to Curve Friends now, Curve Supporters on 8 February, Curve Members, Groups and Access Register customers on 9 February and on general sale on 13 February, all at 12noon.

Tickets can be purchased here.
