About Hadestown
Get ready to go way down to Hadestown in this award-winning musical.
The Evening Standard raves about Hadestown, saying, 'Musically it’s a feast — full of folksy melancholy and heartache, yet also packed with gospel, dirty funk and New Orleans jazz'.
Journey to the depths of the underworld in this modern retelling of the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. Follow the musical prodigy Orpheus as he ventures into the dark realm of Hadestown to rescue his beloved Eurydice from the King of the Underworld himself. Their story intertwines with that of Hades and Persephone, whose tumultuous relationship mirrors the changing seasons.
At the heart of the story is love, hope, trust and sacrifice, as Orpheus journeys into the underworld in an attempt to bring Eurydice home.
Anaïs Mitchell, a celebrated singer-songwriter, and director Rachel Chavkin have collaborated to turn Mitchell's acclaimed concept album into an innovative musical. This genre-blending production combines modern American folk music with vintage New Orleans jazz to give a fresh perspective on an ancient epic story.
From 15th September, a new cast takes over the underworld. Joining the cast are Olivier Award winner Danielle de Niese as Persephone, Shaun Dooley (Mr Bates Vs The Post Office, It's a Sin, Saltburn, Hills of California) as Hades, Fayth Ifil (Tina – The Tina Turner Musical, Just For One Day) as Eurydice, Malinda Parris (The Greatest Showman, Hercules, & Juliet) as Hermes, and The Wanted's Nathan Sykes as Orpheus.
They join Melanie Bright, Spike Maxwell and Lauran Rae as the Fates; Femi Akinfolarin, Michelle Andrews, Gabriela Benedetti, Ollie Bingham and Sebastian Lim-Seet as the Workers, with Juan Jackson, Oisín Nolan-Power, Lindo Shinda, Jasmine Triadi and Milly Willows as Swings.
