Hadestown: Teen Edition
Director: Kyle VasquezMusic Director: Jessalynn Levine
Hadestown tells a version of the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. Eurydice, a young girl looking for something to eat, goes to work in a hellish industrial version of the Greek underworld to escape poverty and the cold, and her poor singer-songwriter lover Orpheus comes to rescue her. Set against a backdrop of a post-apocalyptic steam-punk landscape, this innovative show combines elements of American folk music, jazz, and blues to tell a story of love, loss, and redemption.

Sumptuous... Gorgeous... As good as it gets... You wish you could live in the glowy moment forever.
A transporting musical hit... Anaïs Mitchell's score is a joyful combination of folk, pop, Dixieland and blues that will make you want to rehear it as soon as the lights come up.
Hadestown feels like something more intuitive, elemental, and finely woven than a traditional musical.
