The forum will include performances by the cast ofthe Canadian version ofCome From Away,which is set to open in Toronto this February. The forumwillbe followed by a panel discussion from St. John's area MPSeamusO'Reganwith the cast and creators of the show.

"This is the kind of show that's going to last," O'Regan told CBC on Monday.

"It's a feel-good show. People can't get enough of it. They're expecting a 10-year run on Broadway, I'd expect at least that in Toronto."

The prime minister will then be holding cabinet meetings and strategy sessions in St. John's on Tuesday and Wednesday.

It will mark one of the first events for O'Regan as minister of Veteran's Affairs. O'Regan was named to cabinet as the province's representative last month after Judy Foote announced plans to retire.
