Come From Away – Highcliffe Charity Players

Experience the award-winning musical Come From Away, a remarkable true story brought to life on stage by Highcliffe Charity Players.

Set in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland, the show follows the extraordinary compassion shown by its residents when thousands of passengers were unexpectedly grounded there in the aftermath of 9/11. This uplifting, deeply moving musical celebrates humanity at its best — kindness, community and the power of connection in the most challenging of times.

Come From Away is a raw, heartfelt and profoundly inspiring piece of theatre. Join us this August for a production full of depth, emotion and spirit, performed by one of the region’s most beloved local groups.

Access Performances: The 2.30pm performance on Saturday 29 August will include a BSL-interpreted performance, with signing on the left side of the auditorium. Seats directly in front of the interpreter are numbers 16-19 in the stalls.

Cinderella – Christmas Pantomime

From the team behind last year’s Beauty and the Beast comes this year’s hilarious pantomime Cinderella.

The nation’s favourite pantomime is suitable for the whole family and audiences will be captivated by this production which is full of magic, laughter, audience participation and spectacular surprises, including a flying coach!

Cinderella tells the story of a girl who dreams to escape her life as a servant, being bossed around all day by her wicked step sisters. Her best friend Buttons and her Fairy Godmother will make her dreams come true in this enchanting fairytale, as a dashing Prince and his best friend Dandini hold their annual ball at the palace.
