After a five-time Olivier award-nominated run in London in 2017 and a critically acclaimed Public Theater run off-Broadway in 2018, Conor McPherson's (book and director) Girl From The North Country is on Broadway! Featuring the music of Bob Dylan, Girl From The North Country tells the story of one small town in Minnesota who are left reeling from the Great Depression.
In this spellbinding and exquisite musical we dive beneath Dylan's iconic work and discover the extraordinary characters that inspired him. Featuring songs like "Hurricane", "Tight Connection To My Heart" and the titular "Girl From The North Country" this ethereal and folksy tuner will transport you to Depression-era Duluth, where we meet a boarding house owner on the edge of ruin and the citizens of the town who flock to it. Some are there for the long haul, some are there fleetingly, but within each lies equal measures of tragedy, hope, and humanity.
With heart-wrenching stories mixing with goose-bump inducing arrangements, Girl From The North Country is sure to capture Broadway's heart.
Debuting at London's prestigious Old Vic Theatre in the summer of 2017, Girl From The North Country transferred to the Noel Coward Theatre in London's West End in early 2018. Garnering five Olivier Award nominations, including Best New Musical and Outstanding Achievement in Music, Girl From The North Country won two for its two leading ladies, Sheila Atim and Shirley Henderson. Breaking hearts and selling out wherever it lands Girl From The North Country is the one theatrical event not to be missed.
