Girl From The North Country

Following its world premiere in 2017, Girl From The North Country returns to The Old Vic for a strictly limited run.

It’s 1934 and with life on a knife edge, the community of Duluth are battling their way through the Great Depression. Amongst the dust and the hardship, a group of wayward travellers find each other — experiencing love, loss, life and everything in between, in a local guesthouse filled with music, hope and soul.

With a company of 23 actors and musicians, award winning playwright Conor McPherson beautifully weaves the iconic songbook of Bob Dylan into this smash hit show.

Don’t miss your final chance to see this multi-Tony and Olivier Award winner as it returns to where it all began, for nine weeks only.
