CinemaLive: Girl from the North Country

This jukebox musical, premiering at ‘The Old Vic’, London in 2017, has run every year since all across the world from Australia to a home coming show in Minneapolis, Minnesota!

Taking place during the Great Depression, this is a tale about perseverance, community and connection. It’s vast and varied cast struggle with all manner of life difficulties which are only exacerbated with the arrival of a storm, Marlowe (a bible salesman) and Joe Scott (a down-on-his-luck boxer).

The first Broadway run of ‘Girl from the North Country’ was shut down after just one week due to the emergence of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The initial production was even nominated for a Laurence Olivier Award for ‘Best New Musical’!

Running time: 2hr 31m (including intermission)
