Very good cast performance!
"There are some sequences depicting journey into another world - those are absolutely awesome!
The climax part really drags on, could've used some sharper writing. Still the first 80% of the show more than makes up for it"

Powerful show
"The music and production was amazing. The story was literally a Greek tragedy and had me crying more than once but I would definitely go back and see it again. Every member of the cast was wonderful and the singers were phenomenal! The songs have also been stuck in my head for days now and I'm not complaining.
The only slight issue I had was that the music, at times, was louder than the singers and I didn't hear some of the words but I figured it out and really didn't mind overall.
Please see it if you get the chance. "

Greatest Cast In Broadway History
"If I could give this show 11/10 stars then I would! This cast is some of the most talented and kind hearted human beings in all of Broadway history! Especially Maia Reficco, who took a few minutes to say hello to me today. She really made my day, perhaps even my whole year! I’d recommend everyone buy tickets to see her and Jordan Fisher in “Hadestown” ASAP! "

Very different!
"Gorgeous set, excellent actors & amazing musical score. Not for young children, they won’t understand it. It’s a little deep & can be somewhat confusing at times, but once you get under its spell, it’s highly enjoyable."

Wonderful show with slight complaints
"The music, set, and theatrical design were wonderful. A well-known myth told in a very refreshing way. J. Harrison Ghee truly steals the show, phenomenal Hermes, and I honestly cannot picture anyone better than them to play the role. Persephone and Hades were also brilliant. My only complaint was that Eurydice, played by Jordan Tyson, had a baby voice-ala Britney spears- for 80% of the show. In the first part of Flowers her voice was gorgeous beautiful and felt great, but for the rest of the show it was off-putting everytime I heard them sing. Nonetheless, a great show that was heart wrenching."

New cast, strong energy
"The new principal cast was very good and generally on par with the original cast. Hermes, Orpheus, Persephone and Hades were particularly strong. Music is great. Enjoyable evening.
Generally, children under the age of 13 would likely not enjoy this show as opposed to other subject matters."

Good Show, First Half Confusing..
"Overall, this was a wonderful performance. The cast were very talented and we enjoyed the singing and dancing. Knowing the original Greek myth, we were a bit confused with Orpheus and Eurydice’s meeting in the first half. Was that a diner? We really wished the writer would have started the story with them already engaged. The second half was much more familiar and enjoyable."

I enjoyed it more than my wife
"I think the key was that I knew the story better before it started. My wife was trying to follow the nuances of the story and could not enjoy the performances as much. Maybe do a bit of research before you go so you can focus on the talented cast. We had the understudy for Orpheus. I cannot say I liked his voice as much as the others."

Highly recommend
"A great rendition of the tale or Orpheus and Eurydice. If you do not know much about Greek mythology I recommend brushing up a bit. However, if you read through the playbill beforehand they do a great job at setting the scene. "

"Can’t think of what I did not like - honestly. It’s new innovative - maybe an age old story yet enjoyed the retelling. All The actors were amazing - maybe there Are other innovative productions - and I don’t know about them. I loved the creative twist to the whole theme "

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, singers, dancers, and musicians, Hadestown is a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.
