A multi-award winning musical has revealed a host of UK dates - including a week of shows in Suffolk.
From July 2 to July 6 2024, Come From Away will be running at the Ipswich Regent Theatre.
The shows are part of the musical's first ever tour of the UK and Ireland and comes direct from the West End where it celebrated over 1,000 performances.
Winner of four Olivier Awards including 'Best Musical, Come From Away shares the 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 them into their lives.
