Girl From The North Country at CIBC Theatre

In the winter of 1934, the American Financial Collapse has not yet been rectified and its effects are most pronounced in a derelict board-house in Duluth, Minnesota. Nick Laine fights to keep the property from being repossessed by the bank while his wife Elizabeth continues to struggle with dementia but now and then shows signs of mental alertness. He's been seeing one of the tenants, Mrs. Neilsen, but is she really what he wants? Nick and Elizabeth's children aren't without their own share of challenges. Marianne is five months pregnant and is unmarried while Gene has an addiction to alcohol and no goals in life.

Both travelers and odd locals of the town have their own secret histories and stories to tell. Their dark pasts, which include incarceration, blackmail, and morphine addiction, are eventually revealed to a backdrop of Bob Dylan's incredible music. The enormous amount of positive reviews this one has received should serve as assurance that even the most astute viewers will be hooked by the show's fantastic plot. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness something spectacular at the CIBC Theatre in Chicago, Illinois.
