Big things are happening this Monday! ✈️💛

Single tickets for Come From Away go on sale online June 8, and we are doing something we have never done before. For the first time ever, we are opening up single tickets for our entire 84th Season at the exact same time!

If you want the best seats in the house for Come From Away (opening July 10) or any other production on our upcoming lineup, Monday is your day to lock them in.

Come From Away is the smash-hit Broadway musical that tells the incredible true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small Newfoundland town that welcomed them after 9/11. It’s packed with heart, humor, and unforgettable music—and we are thrilled to bring it to the Oak Ridge Playhouse stage this summer.
