"I loved the singers and the theme and the power in the spectacles.
The last song was especially moving:
”But the ones who bloom in the bitter snow
We raise our cups to them”

Expected it to be good…it was terrific!
"Very glad we picked this show. Whole cast was superb. I had heard some of the main songs on YouTube, and was happy to see that the whole song book was truly good — beginning to end. I went with a group of six folks. Everyone was left raving about the performance."

Nothing but Amazing!
"First of all, there's no bad seat in the house! I surprised my daughter with tickets, while visiting NYC and we both loved it. The entire cast was amazing! Stephanie Mills is a powerhouse. I think all the young ladies were excited to see Jordan Fisher. We laughed, we cried, the set was outstanding, the musicians were awesome! We had a wonderful time. "

So thankful my son chose this play!
"I had no idea what Hadestown was about. No idea what to expect. My son chose this as his “must see” for our trip. I was blown away! The acting, the singing, the choreography, the music, the story line….all of it was amazing. I was able to know what was going on even though I had no prior knowledge. Several of the performers were understudies, and one of the performers it was her very first night! I didn’t know who was a vet and who was new, could not tell it at all. My son explained it all to me after the show.
The 2 performers that came out after for photos and autographs were so kind and gracious and patient.
This was our first ever on Broadway play, we’d only seen one off Broadway before (Hamilton in Alabama), and I am absolutely in awe!
We have 2 more (Gatsby and the Wiz) booked for this week. So excited and hooked!
Thank you Hadestown for being an amazing first experience! "

Best Show from our Weekend Broadway Binge!
"Jazzy musical based on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice (spoiler risk if you Google it!). We flew in from out of town to cram Great Gatsby, Merrily We Roll Along, and Hadestown into a 24hr period, and Hadestown was our favorite of the three. The music was great! We went back and listened to the original cast soundtrack afterwards and we actually preferred the current cast! Orpheus and Eurydice and Hermes in particular were great when we went. The story is gripping and engaging and there are some awesome visuals. The Act 1 Finale in particular has some epic lighting choreography. I think the story and characters are too intense for elementary age kiddos, so I wouldn’t recommend it for the full family."

About
Hadestown
Welcome to Hadestown, where a song can change your fate. This acclaimed new musical by celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and innovative director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812) is a love story for today… and always.
Hadestown intertwines two mythic tales—that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone—as it invites you 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. Performed by a vibrant ensemble of actors, dancers and singers, Hadestown is a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.
