Girl From The North Country at Hollywood Pantages Theatre

Find the elusive glimmer at the border of the tunnel with the Girl from the North Country on Saturday 18th May 2024 at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre! In this on-stage historical fiction, crowds will go through a hundred-fifty minutes of incredible Eugene O’Neill-esque plotlines tuned to the tracks of the last century's most revered recording artist.

Set in Duluth, Minnesota during the Great Depression, the tale focuses around a rundown guesthouse owned by the Laine family. It follows the criss-crossing lives of its many inhabitants, from the lonely, adopted daughter Marianne Laine to the self-styled Reverend Marlowe. Sins will surface, and inner demons will wake. Amidst the oppressive gloom of a devastated nation, can the rays of hope break through?

Girl from the North Country employs the book and direction by Critics Circle Award-winning director Conor McPherson. It features an evocative score from Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bob Dylan with twenty hand-selected tunes, including classics such as "Hurricane" and "License to Kill."

“Yet while this singular production evokes the Great Depression with uncompromising bleakness, it is ultimately the opposite of depressing. That’s because McPherson hears America singing in the dark. And those voices light up the night with the radiance of divine grace.” - New York Times

Named after Dylan’s iconic folk track, Girl from the North Country debuted in 2017, presenting at The Old Vic before moving to West End London. The week-long stint was a big success, winning in three Laurence Olivier Award categories.

It then reached an American audience in 2018 at New York's Public Theatre. Here, it won an acclaimed Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Off-Broadway Musical. The next year, the show finally performed on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre. Despite its run cut short due to the global pandemic, it was nominated seven times at the Tony Awards, earning a Best Orchestrations win.

This 2024, the jukebox musical will arrive at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre as a part of its new run of shows. The indoor stadium offers viewers a truly memorable experience thanks to its spacious seats, remarkable backdrop, and cutting-edge theatrical facilities.
