Come From Away
Book, music & lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Heinook
AUGUST 26 – NOVEMBER 1 ON GILLIAM STAGE
When the world stopped on Sept. 11, 2001, kindness soared in an isolated Canadian town. In Come From Away, a big-hearted musical based on a remarkable true story, 38 commercial flights from around the globe are diverted for days to tiny Gander, Newfoundland. Unfazed by the arrival of nearly 7,000 surprise guests, the residents provide light in a dark time, welcoming the stranded travelers with music, open doors, and hope.

Dracula
Adapted from Bram Stoker’s novel by Kate Hamill
SEPTEMBER 10 – OCTOBER 31 ON GILLIAM STAGE
When your survival is at stake…will you be able to distinguish the monster from the man? Both terrifying and riotous, Kate Hamill’s imaginative adaptation is like no Dracula you’ve ever seen, exploring the nature of predators and reinventing the story as a smart, darkly comic drama. Hamill’s signature style upends this familiar tale of Victorian vampires, driving a stake through the heart of the familiar and giving us a play we can sink our teeth into. Perfect for the Halloween season!

Kings Mountain
By Catherine Bush
SEPTEMBER 17 – OCTOBER 31 AT BARTER’S SMITH THEATRE
Kings Mountain -- the battle that turned the tide of the Revolutionary War and eventually led to American Independence. But how did we get there? Barter actors in a theatrical tour-de-force lead us through the events that surround that fateful day, giving us a glimpse into the world of Overmountain Men and the women who loved them, English kings and the soldiers who served them, and enslaved Americans who wondered what Liberty could possibly mean for them. Commissioned by VA250, this is an experience you don’t want to miss.
