Wow.
"Amazing - the choreography, the stage, the talent, the songs, the plot. What I loved most was that the stage actually became a character in the show! Even just changing scenes was done with dynamic movements that were part of the dance. The songs were so well written and performed with passionate perfection. Such beautiful, unique choreography. I loved it. If I have to offer a suggestion, a couple of the characters could enunciate during the songs. "

Nothing Short of Brilliant!
"I went into this show completely in the blind… By choice. I wanted the story and the music to be a complete surprise. I was not emotionally prepared. This show is relevant to today’s struggles in so many ways. So many themes struck home. Love, despair, doubt, hope, abuse of power, poverty, class war, and renewal. And we’ll sing it again. See this show. It’s amazing!!!"

Don’t Miss Out
"Ali Louis Bourzgi and Myra Molloy have undeniable chemistry. Their voices mesh smoothly together and the show was unreal. I think the cast that’s currently on broadway is criminally underrated. Don’t miss your chance to watch one of the best Hadestown performances you’ll ever see."

A love story that is one step ahead of itself
"Anyone having been interested in Greek mythology at any point will love this musical. The entire show is upbeat with awesome music and dancing. The stage set is unique and sets the pace for dynamic cast performances. I happened to see Tommy last year and the same actor plays the lead role of Orpheas in Hadestown as well. He is brilliant to say the least. This show has endured since before Covid and is absolutely worth the experience."

Exceeded our expectations!
"We were blown away by how such a familiar tale could be told anew and both make us think about current issues and yet at the same time allow us to sit back and just be in awe of the amazing talent and artistry of the musicians, actors, and all who had a hand in the production of the play. "

Loved it!
"The show was awesome. Loved the musicians being on stage. Each actor was perfect for the part. The man that played Hades had a voice that made James Earl Jones sound like a soprano. Persephone was so sassy. Loved her. And Orpheus was delightfully innocent. We were in the first row and could see Myra Molloy and Daniel Breakers tears. What actors!"

Take me to Hadestown!
"I took my 12-yo daughter. We both loved it and found it age-appropriate for her first Broadway show. Riveting performances, great music, singing and dancing. We waited at the stage door after the show and met a couple of the actors. "

Entertainment for all ages
"The show promised to be funny and energetic, and it delivered in spades. I had a 10-year-old and a seven-year-old with me, children that are used to going to the theater, and they had an amazing time. The content was appropriate for them, the historical pieces were not confusing, and while this musical is the modernization of a Greek myth, no background in mythology is required. We laughed and cried and were engaged the entire evening. 10/10, 5/5 would recommend my friends to see"

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.
