Following two intertwining love stories — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — “Hadestown” invites audiences on a hell-raising 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.
“Hadestown” was the most honored show of the 2018–19 Broadway season. In addition to the show’s eight Tony Awards, it was honored with four Drama Desk Awards, six Outer Critics Circle Awards (including Outstanding New Broadway Musical) and the Drama League Award for Outstanding Production of a Musical.
