Come From Away (Apple TV+)

One of the stars of the Broadway production of Come From Away has said the musical gives people not directly affected by the September 11 tragedies 20 years ago “permission to grieve.”

The hit show is set in the week following the 9/11 attacks and tells the true story of what happened when 38 planes were ordered to land unexpectedly in a small town in Canada with 7,000 stranded travellers in need of food and a place to stay.
