David Hein is a Canadian librettist, composer-lyricist, musician, and actor best known for co-writing the BroadwaymusicalCome from Away with his writing partner and wife, Irene Sankoff.[1]
As a result of My Mother’s Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding's success, theatre producer Michael Rubinoff approached Hein and Sankoff with his idea about a show based on Operation Yellow Ribbon in which residents of Gander, Newfoundland, housed 7,000 airline passengers who had been stranded at Gander Airport as a result of the grounding of all North American air flights following the September 11 attacks, which became the musical Come from Away.[7]
