Broadway Cast of Come From Away to Return for Live Capture of the Musical | Playbill

The musical will be filmed at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre, where it had opened in 2017 and played up until the coronavirus shutdown.

Though performances remain dark during the coronavirus shutdown, Come From Away will get the film treatment. Entertainment One will produce a live capture of the musical by Irene Sankoff and David Hein, reuniting cast members of the Broadway production.

The performance will be filmed in May at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre, where the musical opened in 2017 and continued to play up until last March (when all Broadway shows went dark due to the pandemic). It is expected to be released in September.

Christopher Ashley will direct the filmed version, reprising his Tony-winning work. He was slated to helm a feature film adaptation for Entertainment One, as first reported back in 2017, though those plans have since evolved with the absence of live performance.

Exact casting has yet to be confirmed.

favorite scenes in film: dancing queen from mamma mia (2008)

“It’s a very hopeful film. It shows the possibilities of living a good life as a woman: not a perfect life, or a dream come true, but a good life. The story is silly and the dialogue is silly, but the heart of the film says, do you know what, it’s OK to be a woman, whatever age you are and whatever stage you are at in life. The fact that Dancing Queen is sung by Meryl Streep, a woman in her 50s, shows that no matter what age you are, you can be the dancing queen: you don’t have to be young and sweet and 17.” (x)
