Tony Awards
Nominated:
Best Choreography: Twyla Tharp
Best performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical: Karine Plantadit
Shortly after performances of Come Fly With Me closed in Atlanta, the show opened on Broadway under a new title.
Come Fly Away, while retaining much of the original production, incorporated new music and dance numbers. Tharp revised and reconfigured the show to draw stronger lines in each character’s development. The addition of character names served to further distill each personality, while subtle references to Sinatra and his Hollywood circle lend additional drama and glamour to the story.
