Welcome to HADESTOWN, where a song can change your fate. Winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the 2020 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Theater Album, this acclaimed new show 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.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
The 2019 Tony-winning musical takes us to the underworld where a vibrant reimagining of the combined mythical stories of Orpheus and Eurydice, and King Hades and Persephone results in a haunting and powerful production masterfully written by singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and developed by award-winning director Rachel Chavkin. Prepare to be enthralled as the talented troupe of musical and theatrical performers take the audience on this magical, musical journey of love and loss.
