Hadestown
The brand-new musical Hadestown recently made its Broadway debut after experiencing record-breaking runs at New York Theatre Workshop, Canada's Citadel Theatre, and the National Theatre.
In the warmth of summertime, songwriter Orpheus and his muse Eurydice are living it up and falling in love. But as winter draws near, reality sets in: these young aspirants can't get by on just songs. Eurydice is drawn into the heart of affluent Hadestown by the promise of abundance. Orpheus travels to the underworld in an effort to save her, where their mutual trust is finally put to the test.
The cast of Hadestown is led by the acclaimed actors from its sold-out run at London's National Theatre: Reeve Carney, André De Shields, Amber Gray, Eva Noblezada, and Patrick Page. Hadestown was written by renowned singer-songwriter Anas Mitchell and developed with innovative director and Tony Award® nominee Rachel Chavkin. As the Fates, they are joined by Jewelle Blackman, Kay Trinidad, and Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer. Ahmad Simmons, Afra Hines, Timothy Hughes, John Krause, Kimberly Marable, and others perform as The Workers Chorus. Swings Malcolm Armwood, T. Oliver Reid, Jessie Shelton, and Khaila Wilcoxon are also included in the ensemble cast.
