The world premiere of Girl from the North Country, an electrifying new work written and directed by Conor McPherson, along with classic songs from Bob Dylan, opens at The Old Vic on 26 July. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the company in rehearsal below!

Casting is today announced for Girl from the North Country which previews from Monday 10 July 2017 with a press night on Wednesday 26 July 2017.

The story has been told before, but never like this. An occupied desert nation. A radical from the wilderness on hunger strike. A girl whose mysterious dance will change the course of the world. This charged retelling turns the infamous biblical tale on its head, placing the girl we call Salome at the centre of a revolution.

World premieres, new writers and ground-breaking adaptations have been announced for 2017 at the National Theatre.
