And, when a preacher selling bibles and a boxer looking for a comeback show up in the middle of the night, things start to spiral beyond the point of no return.
The Girl From The North Country is written and directed by Conor McPherson, with music and lyrics by Bob Dylan, designed by Rae Smith, musical supervision and orchestrations by Simon Hale, lighting by Mark Henderson, sound by Simon Baker, and movement by Lucy Hind.
