“Come From Away,” the La Jolla Playhouse-born musical that has been a Broadway hit since 2017, will be filmed onstage in May for either streaming or cinematic release.
It’s the second of two Playhouse-sprung musicals that are taking the stage-to-film route since the coronavirus pandemic shut down Broadway in March. “Diana,” the Princess Diana-themed musical that was 19 days from its Broadway opening when it closed last spring, was filmed in September. Its release date has not been announced.
Details on when and where the “Come From Away” film will be available also are unavailable, according to Christopher Ashley, La Jolla Playhouse’s artistic director who is directing both films.
