Hadestown is Anaïs Mitchell’s contemporary mythology adaptation of Orpheus and Eurydice’s love story. After penning the original scores and scripts in 2010, she turned to decorated stage director Rachel Chavkin for assistance in 2012. Together, the pair polished the play for public, off-Broadway showings that began in 2016. Hadestown would move up from its modest beginnings to a aspirational position on Broadway and other well-known stages in London and Canada, making it a global success.
Welcome to the Underworld, where Hades runs a fruitful yet rigid factory called Hadestown. The below-ground workers perform their endless duties daily in hopes they’ll eventually earn their independence. Meanwhile, Orpheus and Eurydice take pleasure in a passionate courtship above ground, despite the tribulations of winter’s famine.
Once Hades forces his wife Persephone to return to Hadestown, an early winter sharpens above-ground famishment. Eurydice, affected by insatiable yearnings and influenced by the enticing promises of the Fates, lusts after the safety Hadestown promises. She eventually travels to the underground industrial complex and agrees to work in exchange for survival.
Her contract entangles her, and it’s up to Orpheus to rescue his bride-to-be. But an unswaying Hades, pressured by his discontented workforce, stands firm in the contractual agreement. Can Orpheus free his one true love with Persephone’s help? Or will Hades force Eurydice to do his bidding for eternity?
In 2019, the musical acquired 14 nominations and eight awards at the 73rd Tony Awards. Hadestown would also claim a 2020 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater. Its lofty achievements and sold-out audiences demonstrate the play’s connection with a contemporary era while combining classical elements from the past.
The critically-acclaimed Broadway show features two acts with more than 20 original songs performed by a exceptional cast.
