Hadestown is Anaïs Mitchell’s modern mythology adaptation of Orpheus and Eurydice’s love story. After drafting the original scores and scripts in 2010, she turned to acclaimed stage director Rachel Chavkin for assistance in 2012. Together, the twosome polished the play for public, off-Broadway showings that began in 2016. Hadestown would graduate from its modest beginnings to a aspirational position on Broadway and other beloved stages in London and Canada, making it a global triumph.
Welcome to the Underworld, where Hades runs a productive but stringent factory called Hadestown. The below-ground workers perform their endless duties daily in hopes they’ll eventually earn their independence. Meanwhile, Orpheus and Eurydice enjoy a blossoming romance above ground, despite the tribulations of winter’s famine.
Once Hades forces his wife Persephone to return to Hadestown, an early winter intensifies above-ground famishment. Eurydice, affected by insatiable yearnings and influenced by the enticing promises of the Fates, lusts after the salvation Hadestown promises. She eventually travels to the underground industrial complex and signs a contract in exchange for stability.
Her contract entangles her, and it’s up to Orpheus to rescue his bride-to-be. But an resentful Hades, pressured by his disquieted workforce, stands firm in the contractual agreement. Can Orpheus free his one true love with Persephone’s help? Or will Hades bind Eurydice to do his bidding for eternity?
In 2019, the musical earned 14 nominations and eight awards at the 73rd Tony Awards. Hadestown would also claim a 2020 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater. Its glittering achievements and sold-out audiences demonstrate the play’s kinship with a modern era while combining classical elements from the past.
The Tony-winning Broadway show features two acts with more than 20 original songs performed by a winsome cast. Embassy Theatre will ensure your comfort throughout the two-and-a-half-hour performance with an intermission midway through the show, cushioned seating, and refreshments available for purchase. The venue’s physical surroundings will also engross you with eye-catching decorations, courteous staff members, and seating that allows a clear stage view.
