We spent Girl From the North Country's opening night with star Kimber Elayne Sprawl when she took over BroadwayWorld's Instagram Story yesterday!
Watch as she takes us on a tour of her dressing room, puts her costars Colton Ryan and Austin Scott to the test with a "finish the lyric" game, and hits the red carpet in style (as voted on by our Instagram followers!).
Missed all the fun? No worries! Watch the highlights below.
Kimber Elayne Sprawl is originally from Cincinnati, Ohio and originated the role of Marianne in Girl From the North Country at The Public Theater. Her Broadway credits include A Bronx Tale and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical. Her national tour credits include Disney's The Lion King.

In what Ben Brantley declares to be "the most imaginative and inspired use to date of a popular composer's songbook," Girl from the North Country is set at a guesthouse at the crossroads of the nation. Wanderers at a turning point in their lives. Each one is driven by a dream - some for work, some for love; all for hope. They each have a song to sing, and once they do, their lives will change forever.
During the critically-praised, sold-out run at The Public Theater, The New York Times raved Girl from the North Country "is as close as mortals come to heaven on earth." Now, this work of extraordinary beauty arrives on Broadway at last.
