- Synopsis
- In what the New York Times declared “profoundly beautiful”, and the Chicago Tribune called "a Broadway revelation!," GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY re imagines legendary Bob Dylan songs, including: "Forever Young,", "Hurricane," "Slow Train Coming," “Make You Feel My Love” and "Like A Rolling Stone." Based in 1934 in Duluth, Minnesota during the Great Depression, a group of wayward travellersʼ lives intersect in a guesthouse filled with music, life and hope. Things are spiralling out of control for proprietor NICK LAINE. His wife ELIZABETH is suffering from dementia. The bank is foreclosing on their home. Their adopted daughter, MARIANNE, has a closely guarded secret that no-one can explain. But when an escaped convict JOE SCOTT seeks shelter at the guesthouse, a relationship develops between MARIANNE and JOE that will change everything for everyone forever. A love story set in a time of adversity; GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY speaks to our world now just as Bob Dylanʼs timeless songs give voice to the eternal struggle of the human spirit for every age.
