After Kurt Cobain, Bob Dylan is Courtney Love’s all-time rock’n’roll hero. Todd Almond performed Dylan’s songbook on Broadway. They join us for a deeply personal celebration of the legendary songwriter.
An electrifying, bewitching singer who, in the words of The New York Times can simultaneously imbue a single sustained note with “a plea, a wound, and a threat”, Courtney Love occupies a singular place in the rockstar pantheon.
Her friend and collaborator Todd Almond is a Broadway multi-hyphenate equally acclaimed as a performer, lyricist and playwright, who took us ‘heaven on earth’ (The New York Times) as the star of Conor MacPherson’s Broadway smash hit Girl from the North Country.
We brought Courtney and Todd together to celebrate the work of the greatest American songwriter of all-time: Bob Dylan.
Whether you're a Bobcat, a Dylanologist, or just an old romantic, tune in for a one-of-a-kind celebration of a singular American talent from two extraordinary performers with unique and personal perspectives on his life and art.
