For 27-year-old Ben (Josh Lawson), life couldn’t be better. A well paid job, friends, parties, girls and nothing to tie him down. But when he is invited back to his old school to join several other ex-students including Alex (Rachael Taylor) and Jim (Ed Kavalee) in talking about their personal achievements, something goes wrong. Ben is the only speaker not to be asked a question by the school kids. This triggers a year of soulsearching and looking for answers in all the wrong places.
From his best friend Andy (Christian Clark) whose solution is that they both take another holiday, to his mentor Sam (Lachy Hulme) who loans him a sports car in the belief that there’s nothing like excessive speed to resolve emotional turmoil. Not even Ben’s father (Rob Carlton) or friends Nick (Daniel Henshall) and Em (Felicity Ward) can offer much in the way of meaningful guidance.
Of course, it’s not easy seeking enlightenment in nightclubs, or on the ski fields of New Zealand, and when you start dating a Russian tennis star things can get really complicated. As the poster boy for a generation desperate to tick every box, Ben begins to suspect that the meaning of life may well reside in the things he's already doing - and a girl he used to know.
调度太棒了，转换的简单、自然、流畅和明确。
a powerful celebration of humanity indeed
哭死我了，故事本就很动人，这舞台调度更是超凡
看的第一部官摄音乐剧 911事件后来自各地的旅客迫降甘德小镇的故事 故事很暖心 歌也很好听 虽然没在现场但被表演和舞台设置深深震撼到了 希望有机会能现场看表演（看完更希望本哥重回音乐剧舞台了
非常动感的歌舞片，各种障碍与解决障碍。在舞台上演绎，真的很精彩。
超级好看！！看的2021官摄。整部剧节奏非常快，经常是上一秒眼泪还往下流，下一秒马上又能让你笑。整部剧以911事件发生时纽芬兰每个小人物的生活为视角，百姓的生活其实更让人揪心：在飞机上度过20+小时的旅客，一个小小的岛上一夕之间来了一倍岛民数量的陌生人，还有38架大型飞机。岛民的无私帮助让这些恐慌的陌生人感到温暖，不仅是人，还有飞机上的动物也得到了很好的照顾。还有美国第一位女机长的故事，她冲破了当时人们对女机长的偏见，不禁让我想起了之前有部纪录片讲述了想当火车司机的女性，她们需要的不仅是学习技能，还有与世俗对抗的勇气。
如果没有疫情 去年的这个时候 我已经坐在文广 在现场成为了一名纽芬兰人
听了无数遍album之后终于在Apple TV里看了。感动！
20 years. Still remember every minute of that morning. This is recorded from live theater. Fantastic acting.
一直get不到这部剧如此之高的口碑，正是因为取材自真实事件，但剧里只是堆叠各式符号和煽情元素未免太投机取巧，缺乏诚意了。（不过cfa的舞美设计真的是很巧妙）
不错！但感觉有点太像纪录片，卡司换角太快，一开始没能反应过来。
基于二十年前改变世界的真实事件，十年前的百老汇作品，官摄在今天这样的时期放出，站在全世界最偏僻的一个角落，呼唤人与人之间的守护和善意，再没有更合适的时机了。
911事件发生时。几十架飞机迫降纽芬兰岛。
歌好听，故事还行
欢快又充满力量的歌舞片，对人性有力的赞颂。虽然来自远方，但彼此没有距离。最后演奏家集体演奏的《Screech Out》真的太嗨了。
it's all about recovery and salvation. 能够关照到911之后第二天的日子和远离纽约的加拿大小镇 这个视角太绝了 人文关怀就是如此。当初在伦敦没能看到现场版太可惜了 演员们的转场和角色切换就几乎在一秒之间 情绪拿捏得恰到好处 this is the stage energy
非常动感的歌舞片，各种障碍与解决障碍。在舞台上演绎，真的很精彩。
机长原型说她看了这部戏101次，它没有让人沉溺在悲伤里喘不过气。自始至终靠的是人性本身的脆弱、敏感、真实和温暖在打动观众。911过去了二十年，但人类还是有点希望的，不是吗？
最感人的永远是陌生人的善意，最动人的永远是旅途中的意外。
