Girl From The North Country is a musical that features 19 songs by Bob Dylan (the show’s title is taken from the song of the same name recorded by Dylan in 1963).

It opened on Broadway just a week before the pandemic shutdown in March last year. Since its reopening in October, it has been wowing audiences in New York and is set to do the same here with a local production that opens in Sydney in January, as part of the city’s annual arts festival.
