I had the opportunity to see this show, and it was amazing!!! I was not previously familiar with this story or show, but I have been going to Broadway shows since I was a little girl with my grandparents. They've always had a special place in my heart. This one has quickly become a favorite! The set was very simple, but with costume changes and accent switches the small cast was able to take on multiple rolls seamlessly. I was swept into the story right from the beginning. I'll admit, I was a high school senior when 9/11 happened, so I wasn't thinking of all the in's and out's of what that meant for the people on the diverted planes until now. There were babies on the planes, children with special needs, people who spoke all different languages, and even animals. So many needs had to be cared for and planned for with little to no notice. The story and show are just unbelievable. If you were on the fence about seeing this show, I highly recommend it!
