Hadestown is being performed for the fifth time on Broadway at the Walter Kerr Theatre.
Hadestown currently stars Maia Reifcco as Eurydice, Phillip Boykin as Hades, Jordan Fisher as Orpheus, Yola as Persephone and Stephanie Mills as Hermes. They are joined by Belén Moyano, Jessie Shelton and Brit West as the Fates. The Chorus of Workers is played by Emily Afton, Malcolm Armwood, KC Dela Cruz, Chibueze Ihuoma and Alex Puette. The cast includes swingers Sojourner Brown, Brandon Cameron, Tara Jackson, Max Kumangai, Alex Lugo, Yael “YaYa” Reich and Tanner Ray Wilson.
Hadestown began as an indie theater project by Anaïs Mitchell that toured Vermont and later turned into an acclaimed album. With Rachel Chavkin, her artistic collaborator, Hadestown was transformed into a genre-bending new musical that blends modern American folk music with New Orleans-inspired jazz to reimagine a stirring old story.
Following two intertwined love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone – Hadestown invites audiences on a hellish journey to the underworld and back. Mitchell’s beguiling melodies and Chavkin’s poetic imagination pit industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. Performed by a dynamic ensemble of actors, dancers, and singers, Hadestown offers a profound and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience.
Hadestown now makes its long-awaited West End premiere at the Lyric Theatre, returning to London six years after its 2018 run at the National Theatre. The production is also currently playing another engagement at the Charlotte Theatre in Seoul, South Korea, and the North American tour has just completed a three-year run.
