Come From Away, a new Broadway musical beginning performances tomorrow at the Schoenfeld Theatre, has announced its general rush policy.

A limited number of $38 general rush tickets (including the $2 facility fee) will be available at the Schoenfeld Theatre box office (236 West 45th Street) when it opens for that day’s performance(s). Purchases are limited to two tickets per person and tickets are subject to availability. Cash and major credit cards are both accepted.

Nominated for 14 Helen Hayes Awards in Washington, D.C., Come From Away is set against the backdrop of the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The show follows what happens when 38 planes and 6,579 passengers are forced to land in Gander, Newfoundland, doubling the population of "one small town on the edge of the world."

Featuring a book, music, and lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein, Come From Away is directed by Tony nominee Christopher Ashley (Memphis) and choreographed by Tony nominee Kelly Devine (Rocky). The musical stars Chad Kimball (Memphis), Jenn Colella (If/Then), Kendra Kassebaum (Wicked), Geno Carr (Allegiance), Joel Hatch (Annie), Rodney Hicks (The Scottsboro Boys), Lee MacDougall (The Wizard of Oz), Caesar Samayoa (Sister Act), Q. Smith (Mary Poppins), Sharon Wheatley (Avenue Q), Astrid Van Wieren (Mamma Mia!), Petrina Bromley (As You Like It), Josh Breckenridge (The Scottsboro Boys), Susan Dunstan (The Lion King), Tamika Lawrence (If/Then), and Tony LePage (Rock of Ages).

Come From Away previously ran at San Diego's La Jolla Playhouse, Seattle Repertory Theatre, Washington D.C.'s Ford's Theatre, and Toronto's Ed Mirvish Theatre. The show officially opens on Broadway on March 12.
