One of the most critically acclaimed musicals of the season, Girl From The North Country has now been nominated for the 2022 Grammy Award.
Set at a guesthouse in Duluth, MN a group of wanderers cross paths. Standing at a turning point in their lives, they realize nothing is what it seems and as they search for a future, and hide from the past, they overcome diversity by finding hope coming together in the present.
Celebrated playwright Conor McPherson boldly reimagines 20 of the legendary songs of Bob Dylan, including "Hurricane," "I Want You," "Slow Train Coming," "Forever Young," and "Like A Rolling Stone," weaving them through a story the Chicago Tribune declares is “Nothing less than a Broadway revelation.” Girl From the North Country is a modern American masterpiece.
