What's Coming NEXT?!?!

Coming to the Absegami stage this fall, on the 25th Anniversary of September 11th - travel with us to Gander, a town that took in thousands of people who were grounded when the US Airspace was closed following the tragic events of the morning… and showed humanity and kindness that we could all bear to see more of. “Come From Away” is not just a story from around a pivotal moment in history - it’s about the community that showed up for their fellow men and women that day and the week following. 

We are proud to welcome our own community in for this experience! As a very special fundraiser event for the Absegami Drama Booster Club, “Come From Away” will be presented as a community theater production at Absegami High School with four performances this fall - September 10th, 11th, & 12th.

Auditions will be held Saturday, May 30, 10 a.m.- 1 p.m., and Monday, June 1, 5:30-9 p.m., at Absegami. Audition requirements, sign-up link, audition form, and anticipated rehearsal schedule can be found at the link through the QR, or by visiting the Audition Packet.
