On this day 25 years ago, the world was forever changed. Come From Away is a retelling of events that happened on 9/12 in a small Newfoundland community called Gander. The show is one of my favorites and it's opening night for Des Moines Playhouse. Thank you for bringing this wonderful musical to life.

I'll link our episode to Come From Away in the comments if you're up for a relisten or want to know more about the show. I'll also drop in the episode from another DMPH 9/11 performance with their eyes, which is told from a young person's perspective.-Ashley

Things we do not approve of -
Pictures and filming during shows
Walking across an entire row to get a drink and then getting lost trying to get back to your seat
Groping your date
Yelling "I love you, Eliza" while the final notes of 'Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story' still hang in the air.
Bringing babies to shows!!!!

The ex-Love Islander says she asked for the theatregoer, who was sitting in the front row, to be kicked out.
