About

Hadestown is a Tony and Grammy Award-winning musical sensation by Anaïs Mitchell and Rachel Chavkin.

This acclaimed musical retells the ancient Greek myths of Orpheus and Eurydice, and Hades and Persephone in a post-apocalyptic, industrial world. Praised for being "big, beautiful, and emotionally blasting" by The Guardian UK, Hadestown is one of those must-see musicals that has become a phenomenon since its 2016 Off-Broadway debut. Based on Anaïs Mitchell's book, she has been in charge for its lyrics and music.

Having won 8 Tony Awards and a Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album, Hadestown is the stage production that, taking from the classic Greek myths, has captivated audiences worlwide. Beginning as a concept album in the first place in 2006, Hadestown has undergone loads of work around its artistry, resulting in one of the best contemporary musicals. With songs like Wait for Me, All I've Ever Known, and Road to Hell, Anaïs Mitchell has proved that a good retelling of Greek myths set in another different timeline can be more than possible.
