The acclaimed musical Girl From the North Country will play its final performance at Broadway’s Belasco Theatre January 23. Upon closing, the new musical will have played 31 previews and 117 regular performances.
Girl From the North Country originally opened March 5, 2020, but closed just a week later due to New York’s COVID restrictions. The production reopened October 13, 2021. The production is currently in advanced conversations with the Shubert Organization to open again in the spring.
Featuring a book by director Conor McPherson and music from Bob Dylan‘s catalog, the musical offers a slice-of-life look at a small community in Duluth, Minnesota, where the Laine family operates a rundown guesthouse.
The cast currently features Todd Almond, Colin Bates, Jeannette Bayardelle, Jennifer Blood, Alex Joseph Grayson, Matthew Frederick Harris, Caitlin Houlahan, Robert Joy, Tony nominee Marc Kudisch, Luba Mason, Ben Mayne, Matt McGrath, Tom Nelis, Jay O. Sanders, John Schiappa, Austin Scott, Housso Semon, Kimber Elayne Sprawl, Edward Staudenmayer, Rachel Stern, Anastasia Talley, Chiara Trentalange, Bob Walton, Aidan Wharton, Chelsea Lee Williams, and Tony nominee and two-time Emmy winner Mare Winningham.
“Working on Broadway with this show has been an incredible and beautiful experience,” said producers Tristan Baker and Charlie Parsons. “We are eternally grateful to our amazing cast and crew for their unwavering commitment, fortitude, and professionalism to deliver the very best show each night. We are most appreciative to our fans and the Broadway community for welcoming us with open arms. We really believe in this show and are looking forward to seeing it in another Shubert house in the spring.”
“Girl From the North Country is an important part of this season,” added Robert E. Wankel, chairman and CEO of The Shubert Organization. “We have always been supportive of this show, and we are excited about bringing it to another theatre in the spring.”
