I'd say CFA is the better one, just judging by the story and the cast recording. And the Dublin/London cast for this is to die for!

In my opinion this has a better storyline (and probably better acting) and Waitress a much better score. It depends on what you're looking for. I think the best thing to do is to listen to the cast recordings and judge by yourself.

Both shows are fantastic if you ask me - but if it’s not possible to see both I’d concur that Come From Away should not be missed. It was my wildcard when in NYC last year and I’ve been unable to forget it ever since. I doubt you’d regret it (as you can see from my avatar I’m not even low-key obsessed!)

Seeing this tomorrow in Dublin. Can anyone tell me if it is still only one act - or have they changed it? What is the running time for this production? Thanks.

It's 1hr 40 minutes without an interval. Friends saw it last week and said it's unbelievably good. I'm going on the last night at the Abbey and am hugely looking forward to it. |

This doesn’t have anyone from ‘Smash’ or ‘American Idol’ in it, and sounds a bit worthy.

No-one's forcing you to see it, let alone pre-judge it for no good reason... ...or maybe read it again in the context of the last page or so...or do I need to put emojis on everything to denote emotions, humour, context etc? I will be seeing it and am far more interested in it than ‘Waitress’; doesn’t mean I can’t take sly potshots at celeb culture does it? |

Yes, that is exactly what I’m doing.🙄 Not taking the piss out of audience members who will only see things with a famous in... |

Saw this last night in Dublin and enjoyed it very much. Performances were good across the whole cast IMO and I enjoyed how it moved from humorous to serious at various moments. Simply staged, but very effective. Well worth seeing. The Abbey Theatre is also a lovely theatre for this kind of intimate production.

How much is the programme/souvenir brochure? From Twitter I believe the programmes are free in Dublin (though I could be wrong). Off the back of that question, what’s the merchandise like? Does anyone recall if they sell the round pins that are available on Broadway? They are the ones worn by the London cast in Canada House. Thanks! |

Programmes are free in Dublin (though they’re only like a couple of folded A3 sheets - it’s not a full programme as such). Sorry, don’t know about the merchandise.

Programmes were free and simple paper ones, no pics or anything just the basic info. Pin wise they had a maple leaf CFA pin as well as a hat, tshirt, hoodie, plastic shopping bag, Dublin magnet, the CD... That's all I can remember  http://instagram.com/p/BrxGLoGHPG0 |
