Hadestown description
It comes with epic music, lyrics and a book by Anaïs Mitchell, the acclaimed singer-songwriter. The show has been developed with - and is directed by - Rachel Chavkin in a magical collaboration. The show originally hit Broadway like a freight train, winning 8 of 14 Tony nominations along with the Grammy for the Best Musical Theatre Album.
Making a massive impact at the Walter Kerr Theatre on Broadway, Hadestown ran for 1000 performances over the Atlantic. Now it’s on the way to the West End, due in town for February 2024, and already keenly anticipated. The staging is outstanding, with dramatic strobe-like effects throughout.

What's the story of Hadestown?
Hadestown takes you on an unforgettable journey to the ancient Greek underworld and back, bringing you into a kind of hell. The plot bends two mythical Greek love stories: the tale of the young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and the story of King Hades and his wife Persephone. The result has been called a ‘deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience’, inviting you to imagine a new and strange world. You’re going to love it.
